Children's Book Project for Juniors

A Recontextualization of The Sun Also Rises, by Ernest Hemingway

In this project, you will stop after you read each chapter of The Sun Also Rises and create a page of an original children's book based on that chapter.  Each page will include the following components.  Since the book has 19 pages, you will, eventually, have 19 pages of your original children's book.
Illustration:  This is a graphic/ diagram/ drawing that supports the excerpt below.

Synthesis: Write two sentences:  one sentence summarizes the chapter, and the other sentence is a thematic interpretation of the significance of the chapter.


Direct excerpt:  Choose one significant direct excerpt from the chapter that connects the drawing and your synthesis.
 
Chapter #:  Note the chapter number that corresponds to this page of your children's book.
