Youth Week Competition
Create a book trailer to promote your favourite young adult book using programs available on your computer. A great movie trailer encourages viewers to see a film; a great book trailer does the same for a novel. Making your own book trailer is fun, free and easy. You'll also go into the draw to win some great prizes!

Book trailers should be less than two minutes. Save your book trailer onto a USB. Please attach a document to your USB with your name, age and a contact number. Remember to include the title of the book and the author's name.

Entries open: Friday 5 April
Entries close: Friday 26 April

Tip: Check out youtube or do a google search for book trailers for some ideas.

Entries can be submitted to any Campbelltown City Library branch.
Winners will be notified by phone on Friday 10 May.

For more information, pick up an entry form at any Campbelltown City Library branch or phone 4645 4444.
