Sharing Story Elements

Every book we enjoy reading has an element that draws us to it. Sometimes it is a particular character, sometimes the setting, sometimes the problem, or even the genre. Right now I am reading a book and the element that is drawing me in is the problem. In this book, The Shadow of the Wind, the main character is trying to find out what happened to the author of a book he finds particularly interesting. The problem is that there is little information about this author in the story. I am interested in the book as it shows little by little more and more about the author of the novel within my book.

Tiger Topic:
Think about the book you are reading. What is it that makes the book interesting to you? Is it a character, the setting, the problem, or something else? Please share this in your blog post. I can't wait to find out more!

See you all Tuesday!

Sounds good! Fiction about sports is always full of a lot of suspense and action. Be sure you let us know what the problem in the story is! I would love to know! Perhaps he wishes he was on the team and not just the bat boy!!That is my prediction based on the title!
