Quick Question--Book Trailers

Hey everyone--

I'm trying to put together a quick list of awesome YA (and MG if there are any) book trailers--ones that really capture the essence of the book or really made you want to go out and buy it. So if you have some favorites, let me know--include the url if it isn't too much trouble.

Besides Undone's (ahem) I have Forest of Hands and Teeth & The Adoration of Jenna Fox--I'd love to include some really funny ones as well--but if you could help me out that would be awesome.

This is for a workshop I'll be giving--it's for English teachers.

I don't know if you'd take this as YA or not...it's a bit mature, but The Screwed-Up Life of Charlie the Second has a funy book trailer...I think:

I'll try and find some mores...

James Patterson (big budget) has a nice trailer for his YA series Maximum Ride. You can find it on You Tube. I don't have the link! Sorry about that!

What a great idea..

Lauren Myracle's Bliss trailer comes to mind. :) And Terri Clark's Breaking Up is Hard to Do.

Good luck. :)
