Book Report C.D./Soundtrack 
Make a CD/Soundtrack with ten songs for the book with an explanation for each song choice. You will need to create a CD cover and inside your CD book you should have an explanation for each song that you choose, which should be approximately five to six sentences in length, discussing how it fits the book. These explanations should be where the lyrics would normally be in a CD insert. Each typed explanation should also discuss how the song is related to one of the literary elements of the book such as theme, character, and situations that the book explored. You might also include one line from the book, linking your artistic choice with your explanation, in each of your paragraphs. The cover can be a photograph, digital art, drawing, or collage. It must be original work.
