Ask Your Child - Does the Cover of the Book Influence You?

Interesting column from the Huffington Post.  Maureen Johnson, a writer of teen books, had this idea. She tweeted "I do wish I had a dime for every email I get that says, "Please put a non-girly cover on your book so I can read it. - signed, A Guy" - and so came the idea for a challenge for her 77,000 followers. A challenge that she called Coverflip. Below, she explains more. The Coverflip slide show in the article is a fun one to look thru. Ask your child if it matters; it might be a good conversation starter.
