• Where can you find it? Espera-se que os alunos respondam algo como: We can find it in newspapers or magazines (printed and online).
• Who writes book reviews and why? Espera-se que os alunos respondam algo como: researchers, journalists, literary writers, chronicles, etc; people write book reviews in order to evaluate a book; state his/her opinion about the book read; highlight weak and strong points of the book; present an overview of the book.
• Why do people read book reviews? Espera-se que os alunos respondam algo como: people read book reviews in order to better know books that have recently been released; people read them to know about someone’s opinion about the book and then decide if they are going to read it; people read them to know a specialist’s opinion about the book.
