In a book review's introduction, the following two elements should appear:
1. **The student’s thesis statement** - This provides the main argument or perspective the student will support throughout the review.
2. **Reasoning to support the student’s judgments** - While this typically appears more in the body of the review, a brief indication of reasoning can help set the stage for the argument being established in the thesis.
The other options, such as textual evidence and claims, are important but are generally presented and developed further in the body of the review rather than the introduction.
