my sister jodie. by jacqueline wilson.

I can’t remember the first book trailer I saw. But I know it was in late 2005/early 2006 – and consisted of a series of quirky photos set to music and subtitles with a note on the end that went something like Coming in May 2006. Well, they kept coming and these days some rival their motion picture counterparts.

Take this little darling. A book trailer for My Sister Jodie, a young adult novel by British author Jacqueline Wilson. Fabulous. Hands down best book trailer I’ve seen. Not at all surprised the trailer, by Anna Lavelle, came out on top at this year’s Bookseller Book Video Awards.

Any other brilliant book trailers we should have a look at?
