Inside a Dog

Inside a Dog has a whole new look and a series of additional features.

Book Clubs:

The biggest new feature on the site is the addition of member-run book clubs. If you are a fan of a particular author, genre, or series, you can now start your own Inside a Dog book club and find other like-minded readers to share ideas, post reviews, or show off your fan art. Book clubs can be either open membership, allowing any of the site’s users from around the world to join and contribute, or closed, requiring permission from the clubs’ creator to join.
Each site member will have their own page, listing reviews they have written, their favourite and recommended books, and the book clubs they are members of. “Star reviewers” will earn privileges, ranging from recognition on the site itself to copies of books to review.

You'll find the 'Book Clubs' link at the very top of the Inside a Dog homepage, just above where you might expect a dog's eye to be :)

Reviews:
In addition to individual pages for members, each book reviewed on the site will have its own page. Book pages will list all reviews of the book, along with any additional content supplied by publishers, including first chapters, book trailers, and audiobook snippets, and a list of recommendations and related titles.

Click on the Books link (next to 'Book Clubs') and you'll be taken to the latest books that have been added. Most require a review. You can still add a review to older books by going back through the pages or choosing a genre and finding books you've read.

Teacher Resources:

There are some fabulous links under the link titled: 'Teachers' at the top of the homepage.

Take a look at the 'Book Trailers' link which supplies excellent links that will help your students create book trailers in a number of formats including PowerPoint and Movie Maker.
