I am right in thinking the book has to be non-fiction? the example you give of The Death and Life of Charlie St. Cloud is listed as Fiction , IN fact all 3 examples are of fictional works and I want to be sure that I am not limiting myself to non-fiction when a fiction will work.
The task says to read a Non-Fiction book, but the examples given in the cover option are all Fiction. Just want to get clarification on the non-fiction requirement.
MorningJust checking if this is okay for clouds for Option 1:
D-Day: The Battle for Normandy.
And if it is, I just wanted to clarify. This is clearly a Non-Fiction History book, but for some reason it includes Military Fiction as an MPG. Is that still okay if the clouds work?
Thanks.
I would listen to audio version with this cover.
I think the cover has cirrus clouds, not smoke. Does it work?

Those are definitely clouds and it does appear to be a non-fiction book so I am approving it.

Yes, those look like clouds to me.

Would these work for clouds behind the city? 
They look like clouds to me so I am approving this book.
Does this book meet all of the requirements? Proud: Living My American DreamOn AR Bookfinder it lists this book as IL: MG BL 6.7 AR Pts 10.0
and only lists Ibtihaj Muhammad as the author which would satisfy Opt Opt 3
I got this book from the library last year and didn't realize it was a young readers edition until I was halfway through.

Summer is a time for games but it is also a time for relaxing. There is something particularly relaxing about laying back and looking at the clouds.
Since I am the winner of the It's a Fact task read a NON-FICTION book that fits on these options.
Required: State the option
Option 1: Read a book with clouds on the cover. These can be drawings or photos but you must be able to identify them as clouds.
Examples:
Required: post the cover
Option 2: It is especially nice to lay back on the grass while looking at clouds. Read a book with all the letters of GRASS in the title. Subtitles are excluded.
Option 3: After staring at clouds for a while it is time to jump in the pool. Read a book with a single author, whose first and last initials can be found in SWIMMING POOL.
