Holiday reading challenge - Cover Design

This is my new design of the cover of the book: Time hunters: Cowboy showdown by Chris Blake. We can do this activity by choosing any book and making a new cover for it. We also have to include why our cover is better so here is my reason why: My cover is different by not showing cowboys. Instead, I show their mode of transportation back in time to get to the Wild West: A whirlwind. I did this because by looking at the title, you can tell there will be cowboys in it. It's kind of obvious there will be cowboys in it isn't it? This is why my cover is better.

Holiday Reading Challenge: Setting

This is one of the activities for the holiday reading challenge given to the seniors of our school. For this activity, I had to choose a book (I chose Rick Riordans Heroes of Olympus: The house of Hades (Fiction, Mythology)). The setting in the story I chose was the lowest floor of the House of Hades. I drew: The doors of Death and the remains of a altar to Hades, of which was destroyed which explains the random pieces of rubble.
