Non-fiction/Historical Fiction book report

HISTORICAL FICTION/NON-FICTION BOOKREPORT
Every quarter you are required to read ONE Historical Fiction/Non-Fiction book.
Nonfiction means that is TRUE, or REAL LIFE.
You may also choose to read Historical Fiction.
Your book report will be due to two weeks before the end of the quarter. THIS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED LATE!!
You will need to bring a COPY of the book, and your book report with you to class the day the book report will be due. You will be presenting your book to the class.
Your book report will be a handout that I will pass out to you. On the back of the handout you are to design a new book cover for your book. You book cover requirements are: title of the book, author of the book, have the main character, whatever you think best represents the book, color, and neatness.
You can choose any nonfiction to read. If you need some ideas, here are some books that you can choose.
