140-character book reviews including the hashtag!
Bill Ferriter talks about the top 10 Middle school titles, and mentions in passing a great hook for getting kids to write about their book: tweet-style. He hopes to start tweeting out the reviews soon.
"The challenge of fitting important ideas that might hook readers into 140-character sentences was harder than they originally thought. They were also way into trying to come up with hashtags that would make readers wonder and smile all at once."
Sample: "Have you been illegally hiding in your attic — looking at the world through a vent? Luke can relate! Read "Among the Hidden." #intense"
