Teacher Guide
Explain that the students need to choose one book for each person. The profiles of the people explain what types of books they are interested in. There will be only one book from the list that correctly matches their interests. Some of the books won't match with anyone. Have them read each of the five personal descriptions, and underline their key requirements. Compare the description with any possible matches from the options and check that they meet ALL of the requirements of the person. Beware of 'word-spotting' which is using one or two identical words to form a false match.

- Compare the description again with any possible matches from the options and check that they meet ALL of the requirements of the person.
