Description

Descriptosaurus Action & Adventure by Alison Wilcox is a comprehensive guide to colourful cinematic writing for children. Building on the vocabulary and descriptive phrases introduced in Descriptosaurus, this book develops the structure and use of words and phrases within the context of adventure stories. By combining descriptions of setting and character, children can create vivid scenes that allow readers to feel characters' emotions and visualise action within a setting. This system provides a contextualised alternative to traditional grammar textbooks, helping children acquire, understand, and apply the grammar needed for improved writing, both creative and technical. This guide enables children to take their writing to the next level by experimenting with their own adventure stories, armed with the skills, techniques, and vocabulary necessary to craft engaging narratives.
