                                                               FUN FACT

                                      Even though it has the same purpose as narrative text to
                                      entertain the reader, there are still differences, guys. In the

                                      recount text, there is no conflict told by the author. So, purely
                                      story related.


                                      There is always a story sequence. For example, like the example
                                      above, that is, there is the first day, the second day, and so on.
