Search Stories for Fictional Characters

Ohhh, the lovely Jill over at NerdGirlBlogging introduced me to her new favorite thing (which quickly became my new favorite thing, too): Create Your Own Google Search Story.

You remember that commercial from the Superbowl with the Google searches and Paris and all that?

Well, you can create your own. And why not create one for your favorite fictional character? I'm seeing all sorts of possibilities... Post them on your library webpage as a sort of unique booktalk. Post them on your library's Facebook page and invite patrons to make their own. Or just give me a link to the ones you create and I'll make up a gallery for them. :)

Here's Jill's for Nancy Drew:



And here's mine for Starring Sally J. Freedman As Herself:



And I made a Baby-Sitters Club one:



So, go forth and create a Google search story for your favorite character or book. Email me a link (abbylibrarian @gmail.com) or post a link in the comments and I'll create a gallery for 'em.
