Color choices

This ghost sits reading an open book at the base of a big leafy tree. Leave the ghost pale with light shading along its rounded edges so it reads clearly against the dark trunk. Color the tree’s full canopy in layered greens or warm autumn colors, and let the falling leaves scattered around pick up matching gold and red tones. Shade the book’s open pages a soft cream so the text lines stand out.

Choose the ghost’s story

Invent a title for the book and write a three-sentence story on another sheet. Decide why the ghost chose to read under this tree. Compare this outdoor reading spot with the cat-and-books picture linked below.
