Book Report Poster reflection



Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K.Rowling is a great book that I chose to make my book review on. This book talks about the adventures of Harry Potter with a place called the Chamber of Secrets. This book is really interesting to many people! This book is really good for older kids because its really confusing to little kids. I really recommend this book because I read it and I think its really good. My poster includes the plot, the author, my favorite part, the main Characters, the Climax, genre, the theme, setting, conflicts and awards the book won.
