Multi-Genre Project: The Reaping Poster

In the story "The Hunger Games" Everything starts to really go down the tubes for the main character, Katniss, when her little sister is chosen in the Reaping.  Katniss loves her little sister Prim with all of her heart and when Prim gets chosen to for the Hunger Games is breaks Katnisse's heart.  She has two choices, she can either sit back and watch as her innocent little sister marches off towards certain death or she can take her sisters place and most likely end up dead herself.  This causes a lot of emotional distress for Katniss and she reflects on her decision and her feelings often throughout the book.  I created a fictitious poster that may have been displayed around District 12 by the Capital to inform the citizens about the upcoming event.  I'm certain that if Katniss had seen this poster before the Reaping she would have been filled with rage and would have probably ripped it right off the wall.
