This is the cover for the first book in Patrick Carman's new series. I selected this image because this book is an excellent example of what authors and publishers are doing to try to entice reluctant readers. The book itself is easy to read (fairly short, large font) and written as a journal. Ryan is writing the journal while he is stuck at home recovering from a mysterious accident. His best friend, Sarah, has a video blog. As she uncovers information, she sends Ryan a new password for the blog. The reader then goes to the blog, enters the password, and views Sarah's video. This book is high interest, low ability and has the extra technology punch to lure readers.I found this image by going to Patrick Carman's website: http://patrickcarman.com/main/skeletoncreek/.
