How do you select books to read? Do you judge the book by its cover? Do you get recommendations from friends? Do you check popular book lists? Perhaps you watch the movie and then decide to read the book.
Book trailers combine the best of these options with brief videos which act much like popular movie trailers. In a video of about 2-3 minutes long, you are introduced to a book’s basic story line with photographs, video elements, and narration. Similar to a movie trailer, book trailers highlight key scenes and provide enough information to help you select the best books to meet your interests.
Included below are a few book trailers for popular children's books and some of the Maryland Black-eyed Susan titles. Enjoy!
