George, By: Alex Gino

For our last book review we were aloud to show an important part of our book, we could make a diorama, or even a newspaper! I made a newspaper of some important parts in my book. I looked at newspaper templates on Google and used my favorite. I decided on a question and answer interview with the play director and the actor (George). I also threw some ads in there along with an editorial.

Boy Wants to Play Girl In Play But Teacher Will Not Let Him

Interview with teacher, Mrs. Hernandez:

Reporter: So, why can’t he play charlotte?

Teacher: Because he is a boy and charlotte is a girl. It would not sound the same if he played her in the play.
Reporter: But it really sounds like he wants to play her.
Teacher: I do not care I will not let this happen.
Reporter: Thank you for your time.

The book George takes place in a small school. In the school they are having a play. In the play they have a character named Charlotte who is a girl but George wants to play Charlotte but he is a boy! Then George’s friend Kelly steps up and changes everything.

I really think that this is unfair. I am on George’s side because I also stand up for the transgender community. I am on George’s side because I live by the words BE WHO YOU ARE.

  1. I like how you showed your book review in a news article form. I also liked how you said what the teacher thinks and what George thinks.

  2. I like how you made yours a news article. I think it’s interesting that yours is also a interview. I like how you made it two in one. Also I like how you have two interviews.

  3. I liked how you picked a scene that shows you need to be true to your real self no matter what other people say.
