Directions:  Design the front and the back cover for a CD to capture the theme or spirit of your book. Be sure the name of the book, plus the title of the hit single, appears on the front cover along with an appealing sketch or design. On the back, list the other songs from the CD, making sure they relate to the book and to the characters' experiences. [Adaptation: Write lyrics to the hit single.]
    The CD covers below include students' songs based on Julie of the Wolves by Jean Craighead George and Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O'Dell. Teacher: Kristin McNabb, 5th grade, St. Joseph School, Seattle, Washington.
