* Note: Because the alphabet books will be bound, correct format will include borders/margins on every page. Leave at least one inch with no text or images on all sides of your pages.
**Remember that if you use pictures from books or internet sources, those sources should be listed, so KEEP TRACK of them on your source sheet, just like you do the sources of information!
***Author's biography should be a 7 to 10 sentence paragraph that describes you, the author! Tell your name, age, activities, things you like, information about your family or where you live, and why you chose or like this specialty topic.
ABC books take many hours to create. Begin early in the year by making a list of words that go with each letter. Create a few pages at a time. (You don't have to make them in order, as long as your final project has the pages in the correct order when it is turned in.)
