3.  Author Cards
Students create author cards (similar to baseball cards) for given authors. The card includes a picture of the author, biographical information, list of books written by the author, and explanation of why the student likes that authors works.  This is a great idea-different authors could be used or students could select their own authors.  Visited 7/4/02.
