your friend or yourself as a reward for reading a certain number of stories. |

- Cut the bookmark out (one big rectangle) and fold in half (left to right) along the
center line.
- Glue so it stays folded together.
- OPTIONAL: cover with clear contact paper
so it lasts longer (you could also put a
piece of cardboard in the center before gluing for a sturdier bookmark)
- OPTIONAL: Poke a hole in the top of the bookmark and tie a string/wool through as
a tassle.
- Close the template window after printing to return to this screen.
