Worksheet Overview

 

A pile of books

 

The title of a story or book is very important as it tells the reader what it might be about, helping them to decide whether or not to read it. 

 

Usually, the title is linked to the main theme, character or event in the book. 

 

Fiction books might have a title which tells us about the main events or characters in a story, such as:

The Adventures of Sally the Sausage Dog

The Talking Broomstick

The Worm and the Slug

 

Non-fiction book titles will usually tell us what kind of information or facts we might find out about inside, such as:

101 Facts about Dinosaurs

All About Sharks

What Victorian People Wore

 

Let's have a go at working out what a book might be called, based on its main character, event or theme.
