Book Reviewer (MCPS SSL Approved)
What
Description:
We are looking for middle and high school students to write reviews of books they have read. We will create a print booklet of these reviews,and will also post them online on our "Teen Book Buzz" blog. This position requires good writing skills, plus critical thinking skills. These are reviews, NOT book reports, so we want only a bit of plot summary and lots of discussion about why the book is/is not good, how other teen readers would relate to the story and characters, etc.
