Nonfiction Animal Book Project 
You will create your own nonfiction book about an animal of your choice. Your book should include facts, labeled diagrams, bold words, a table of contents and other nonfiction text features we've learned about. Your goal is to teach your reader new information using clear writing and organized pages. Be sure to use complete sentences, neat handwriting or typing, and show your best effort in every part.
