The document provides tips for creating digital book trailers, which are short video previews of books. It recommends including essential ingredients that capture the essence and feeling of the book in 3 sentences or less without revealing major plot points or endings. Photos should be chosen to make viewers think and not be too obvious. Attribution and credit for any copyrighted content using Creative Commons licensing is important. Examples of books that could be featured in trailers include Found by Margaret Peterson Haddix, Greetings From Nowhere by Barbara O'Connor, City of Ember by Jeanne Du Prau, and Milkweed by Jerry Spinelli.
