'A Child's Guide To The Fantasy Fiction Genre'

So many students struggle to write with flair and focus in exams.  Why?  Well, many just do not understand fiction genres and how the text is put together. If they don't know what specific genre features are found in certain text types, how can they be expected to write convincingly in that style themselves? If they're not voracious readers with access to a range of genre-specific language, the challenge is even greater.  This is where my series of 'Ninja Guides To Fiction Genres' come in!  They're an informative and illustrated guide to text genres. There are currently 5 in the series.  Each one steers your child through all the core structural, character and stylistic elements of that specific fiction genre. Not only will this give your child far more confidence with the genre when asked to write in its style for a task...it will also make an exam comprehension extract taken from the rich and varied fantasy fiction genre that much easier to decipher and analyse. If they know their text genres and each style's defining features, they are more likely to be able to write in that style themselves. The pdf guide is packed with high-quality images, designed to excite and inspire your child to use and of them as image prompts for their own creative fantasy writing about mythical and magical lands, heroes, villains and magic.  Each guide also contains an extensive list of suggested reading for that specific literary genre, enabling your child to try new books and maybe give that new text genre a go. A must-read!
