  3. which book have you read where this happen?

    I have read the book Imagine a Day and Imagine a Night and i think the author is trying to reflect the picture e.g one picture looked like people making a bridge with there body and the another one looked a bit different but you could see what was the same.e.g the author is trying to reflect the two pictures.

  5. Not bad responses.

    What I am looking for is examples of language that created really good visual images in your mind.

    Or perhaps you can describe a certain part of a book you read where you could really picture what was happening.

    Be specific and give examples!

  6. Imagine a day is a book where you really have to look at the illustrartion and have to make a connection with the writing because they have a really have a intense meaning to it beacause when you take a good look at it you can tell much more about the book and it helps understand the book more . I think that this book is suitable for primary children because they will get the point and meaning much better . I think this is a great book for developed readers .

  7. The book/s I thought was really easy to picture was the Percy Jackson series because when it said that Percy blew up a school in the second book,(The Sea Of Monsters) I could imagine a massive explosion and a strange, huge cannibal.

  9. imagine a day:
    i think that imagine a day is a great book because it gets us to imagine and its also a great book for young kids because like i said it gets us all to imagine. Maybe kids will make their own book like a imagine a morning. This book makes me think alot. If young kids make their own imagine a morning or something they can imagine and just feel free.

    sanaa:)

  10. The book that I could really picture is 'The Serpents Shadow' which is the last installment of The Kane Chronicles.

    The part that I could picture was when Carter and Sadie had to fight sphinxes in the Dallas Museum after the chaos lord took control of them. Another part that I could picture was when they were standing next to a lake of lava.
