The Desktop Space I made is about choosing your favorite author. It is important for kids to read and having them express what they like is helpful for them to choose new books and find books their favorite author wrote and they have not read. Sharing the author's to others may help other's find new author's and books they will love. This is designed for kids grades 3-6 due to the books I have chosen but it can be easliy adapted to any age and grade. The children need to choose three authors(one for each page in project) and write three books they have written that they like or that they want to read. They then must write a sentence or two on why they look the book or why they want to read it.

Here is my started template.

After looking at the author's pictures I have chosen I decided to change them. I realized that I did not know what many of the author's looked like. By just looking at the pictures I would not have known who they were. So for my examples I changed the pictures to some common books children read.

The first example is just choosing three authors and their books.



The second example is for choosing three authors from Indiana. It is important to know what famous author's came from right around where you live. I figured the children would need help picking authors so I searched for a website that listed Indiana authors. The second site that came up was for a wiki that was made by IUPUI SLIS students.
