I love book covers. LOVE them - some more than others of course. I love hearing what others have to say about them.
On Mondays I merrily share some of the good ones I've seen, find out what version of a cover you like better or express my disappointment in a cover that could've, in my opinion, been better.
I've had this book in my classroom library since last year. It has the original cover. Rarely do I have a student look at it. They are not drawn to the cover. This fall the book was at our book fair with the new cover. I saw more girls pick it up than I ever saw all last year! I told the girls I had the book, and they were suprised. They didn't realize they were the same book!
I love the new cover. Sorry folks, but I never did like the first one.
NEW ONE
OLD ONE
I agree. The new cover is much more YAish. The old one looks like an adult book.
ReplyDeleteThe new one is so much better!
