Book Trailers


A book trailer is a short movie, usually 30-45 seconds long, intended to get another person motivated to read the book you have read and enjoyed. A book trailer does not give the entire story of the book, but a general idea of basic story elements. A great book trainer adds suspense and interest to the story often leaving a mystery behind so others are interested in seeking the solution to the mystery but reading the story themselves.
