The best thing is to make your own video of yourself "booktalking" the book. See the resources below for help writing your book talk.
Unless you take the pictures yourself, any image you use must be cited. You may put the attribution (citation) underneath the image or combine all of the citations in one power point slide for Works Cited. You will save that slide as a jpeg so you can then upload it to Animoto.
Set up an Animoto account. Go to http://animoto.com

You will need at least 20 images for your booktrailer. You may repeat images as necessary.
The text you write on each image will be limited so plan ahead the "book talk" you are giving for the book. Remember, do not give too much information and especially not the ending. The purpose of a booktrailer is to get other people interested in reading the book.
