This book demonstrates the importance of pictures. There are no words and through watercolors, a wonderful story of an unordinary day at the beach is told. This science fiction picture book would be a great starting point for introducing narrative writing. I would ask questions such as: How do words hook the reader into a story? Does sentence fluency make a story flow? How does precise word choice show character’s actions, thoughts, and feelings? Do the pictures do the story justice or would text make it more enjoyable for the reader? What text would you add if you wanted to add words?
