A guidebook entry

What the hell is that?

Some instructions What you write for a book entry is very similar to an article so: • There should be a title • It should include section headings • The language should be quite formal as book entries are usually written for serious publications • The subject should be made clear in the first section • The opening section should be as interesting as possible to make the reader want to carry on reading • It is important that what you write is as realistic as possible and therefore should look like an authentic text

Writing style Book entries will include a combination of: Descriptive language: e.g. describe a person/place, etc. Discursive: e.g. give and support your opinion, analyse a situation, give explanations. Narrative: e.g. narrate an event or a discovery
