Sell the book
Sell the book
Task: Now that you have read the book your job is to sell it. You are to convince your audience that the book you have just finished is a must-read.
Come up with convincing arguments on why your class mates (and everybody else) just have to get hold of a copy and start reading. Maybe it is the book’s fantastic language, the fascinating characters, the unique story line, statistics showing that it is loved by millions of people all around the globe or the fact that the book will dramatically improve its readers’ English skills. You decide, and use the tools you feel necessary to sell the book.
You have 2 minutes at your disposal. Use the time wisely and why not see if you can fit ethos, pathos and logos into your sale’s pitch? Make sure your speech is structured and has a proper introduction and conclusion.
