Non fiction books

I am learning to describe the features of a non-fiction text.

The book ‘The Biggest Land Animal” is a non-fiction text. I know it is non-fiction because:

Photos What type of pictures are in this book?	Photos
Index What does the index tell us?	It tells you where to find things in the book.
Glossary What does the glossary tell us?	It tells you what the words say.
Why do we read non-fiction books?	So we can know about animals and other stuff.
What have you learnt from reading this book?	This book is teaching us about elephants.

It was a tiny bit hard to talk about non fiction books because I couldn't think about much. I could have read the book again to help me a bit more.

Adding detail

I am learning to add some details to my writing.

Jill the Whale

Early in the morning Jill searched for some friends. She searched for days and days. Finally she saw tiny little seahorses.

She  said, “Can I be your friend?” They said, “Yes! You can.”

“My name is Jill. What are your names?” asked Jill. “Our names are Irene, Hannah and Jill.”

They lived happily ever after. The end.

I like adding detail to my stories. I know I am good at it because I can write long stories and Mrs Mason says they are funny!
