PROMPT
The author of This Is Your Life Cycle uses a make-believe TV show and
humor to explain the stages in the life of a dragonfly. Unlike many stories,
readers must pay careful attention to the details of each illustration to
fully understand the story because some important parts of the story are
told only through the pictures.
Write a book review that summarizes the story and explains how the
author used illustrations to tell the story. Also write your opinion about
this technique. Why do you think the author chose to tell part of the story
through the illustrations? Do you think this was a good way to achieve the
author’s purpose? Would you read other stories that use this technique?
Don’t forget to use some of the Critical Vocabulary words in your writing.
PLAN
Make notes about the story details that are only shared through
illustrations. Then brainstorm a list of reasons you think the author
might have chosen this storytelling technique.
