What is your favorite book?

I have so many favorite books. It is hard to choose from among them! However, spring always makes me long for my favorite literary character, Anne of Green Gables. Springtime on Prince Edward Island (although it arrives later there than here) is such a beautiful time, and Lucy Maud Montgomery does an amazing job of capturing the essence of the season throughout the eight Anne books. It is an annual tradition for me to re-read these books to celebrate the coming of spring. (After all, C.S. Lewis said: "It is a good rule after reading a new book, never to allow yourself another new one till you have read an old one in between.")

If you would like extra credit in English class, make a poster for your favorite book. Make sure you include some pictures, the bibliographical information, a quote from the book, and an explanation for why you love this book. Why do you read it over and over? You may use my sample below as an example. This will be due on April 1, 2011 at 7:50 a.m.
