1. Refresh in memory what a blurb is. Look at sample blurbs online and create a blurb for a book you look.
Harry Potter has never known a real home. Living in a cupboard under the stairs at his aunt and uncle’s house, he feels unwanted and ordinary. But everything changes on his eleventh birthday, when a giant called Hagrid bursts through the door with astonishing news: Harry is a wizard.
Swept away to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Harry finds friends, magic, and a place where he truly belongs. Yet strange things are happening at the castle—whispers of a hidden stone with incredible powers, and a dark force that everyone thought had vanished forever. Can Harry uncover the truth and face the danger waiting for him? His first year at Hogwarts will be more exciting—and more dangerous—than he ever imagined.
2. Write a short review of your favourite book. Use the prompts below to help you.
My favourite book is Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone by J.K. Rowling.
It is a fantasy story about an ordinary boy who discovers that he is a wizard and goes to study at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. At school Harry makes real friends, learns magic, and faces many adventures.
I like this book because it is full of mystery, friendship, and courage. The characters are interesting and easy to remember, especially Harry, Hermione, and Ron. The story is exciting and sometimes funny, but also dangerous and emotional.
I would recommend this book to everyone who enjoys adventure and magic. It shows that even an ordinary person can become a hero if they are brave and kind.
