Descriptosaurus: Action & Adventure

Descriptosaurus: Action & Adventure builds on the vocabulary and descriptive phrases introduced in the original bestselling Descriptosaurus, and within the context of adventure stories develops the structure and use of the words and phrases to promote colourful cinematic writing. This essential guide will enable children to take their writing to the next level, to combine their descriptions of setting and character, and show how they interact, so that they can experiment with their own adventure stories, armed with the skills, techniques and vocabulary necessary to describe their action scenes in a way that the reader can feel the character's fear and excitement, and visualise the action within the setting.This new system also provides a contextualised alternative to textbook grammar and will assist children in acquiring, understanding and applying the grammar required to improve their writing, both creative and technical.
