Sometime the outside of a book
is covered with a Book Jacket.

coated covering of a book that
is found on the outside of the
book which features the title of
the book, the author, a colorful
photo, and often a brief
Synopsis or summary of the
book and some biographical
information on the author.

Half Title Page
that comes right
before the full

us the title of the

usually has an

a short summary or

People often ask,
“Where do you find
stories?” Stories are
everywhere: in books
and newspapers, in the
movies, in everyday
events, in dreams, in the
minds and mouths of
people, and, above all, in
our own lives.
