Why use a book review bookmark?
Using a book review bookmark offers numerous benefits for both kids and their teachers:
- The interactive layout of the bookmark prompts readers to think critically about the book they’ve just finished.
- Writing a book summary requires a deeper understanding of the story’s key elements, characters, and plot twists.
- The opportunity to sketch favorite scenes or characters nurtures creativity and artistic expression.
- Having a dedicated space to record thoughts about each book read creates a sense of accomplishment and encourages kids to read more.
- Assigning a rating to the book based on personal enjoyment encourages critical thinking. Readers learn to articulate their preferences and opinions, fostering analytical skills.
- As readers complete the book review bookmarks, they have a collection of their favorite reads. This serves as a handy reference for future recommendations to friends, family, or their school community.
- The completed book review bookmark becomes a cherished keepsake.
- By noting down different titles and authors, kids are encouraged to explore a wide range of genres and authors.
- The book review bookmark can become a conversation starter between parents and kids about the books they read.

How to use
Download the free bookmark at the bottom of the page.
For best results, print it on cardstock, but white paper or other colors work too. Cut along the dotted line, I prefer a paper cutter for time-saving, but scissors work just as well!
Fold the bookmark in half and glue it together with school glue.
Let the kids unleash their creativity and color in the books.
After finishing a book, it’s time to complete the book review, honing artistic, reading, and critical thinking skills.
The bookmark measures 2.5 x 8.5 inches when folded in half.
It’s the ideal size to mark your place in any book and serves as a wonderful reminder of the fantastic stories you’ve explored.
