What a fabulous book fair we attended today! There were so many wonderful books to choose from! How do you select the books you buy at the book fair or the books you borrow from the Hi’ilei Media Center? What kinds of things do you consider? Why? Can you provide an example?

I choose books by their title,if it seems interesting.For example,the Tinkerbell and the Lost Treasure book seemed interesting.

I use the cover to select my book.If the tittle sounds exsiting I read a little of the book but if the tittle is boring I just put the book back.

I look at the pictures in side the book and see if the pictures look cool.And I look if the titel looks intersting.

I try not to get to hard or to easy books I try to get books that are just right.I don`t like books that are to long,somtimes I flip throgh the pages to see if it to long I put it back I don`t like to get books becouse I might not finish the book on time to finish it.Some of my favorite books are Skippy Jon Jones,Shark books,the Secret of Zoom.

The first thing that I look at is the picture on the cover.I look for intresting pictures on the cover.Then I read the back of the book to see what the book is about.I bought the book, The BATTLE OF THE RED HOT PEPPER WEENIES.

At the book fair this is how I got my books. First, I looked around the room and tried to look for an interesting cover. Second, I looked inside the book and read the first couple of sentences. Then, if I found it to be interesting, I bought it.
An example of this is my “Super Incredible Knock-Knock Jokes” book. The cover of the book was colorful. I liked the picture on the cover. And when I read it from the beginning it was good. So I bought it.

When I select books I look at the title and I read the first few sentences or the first chapter’s title. I also look at the back to see if there is a summary of the book. If it seems interesting I think about getting it. If I am at the Book Fair I look at the price to make sure I have enough money to buy it.
I like when there are colorful pictures to look at like the Skippyjon Jones books. Skippyjon Jones books have neat pictures and it’s pretty funny too! I would also choose it if it seems like I would make a connection with it. Like with the Ramona books I can connect with it because she’s a girl and she’s around the same age as me. She also has short hair like me.
I also like joke books because they’re funny…sometimes.

I would get books that have a interesting title and a interesting picture , I would look in the book and see if it interests me and I would get a book that I know about like Diary of a Wimpy kid.

First I choose my book by looking for action on the cover. Then I flip through the pages and if I like what I read then I might get it.

This is how I chose the books. I bought a new Geronimo Stilton book I looked at the cover and it looked interesting and I want more because I would like the whole series.
October 14th, 2010 at 9:26 pm
The way I chose my books is looking in the back of the book and reading it.
