Forms of WritingBook Report
A book report may best be defined by what it is not. It is not simply a restatement of the contents of the original work. A book report summarizes main ideas, but it also provides interpretation and evaluation based upon the context of the original work and its purpose and intended audience. Of course, book reports themselves have a purpose and audience; therefore the form and content of the book report will vary accordingly. The links below provide explanations and examples.
