Use your imagination.

Organize:
1st paragraph
Movies leave stuff out.

2nd paragraph
Use your imagination.

3rd Paragraph
Movies are based on books

Introduction:



1st Paragraph: 
One of the many reasons I think books are better than movies is that movies leave stuff out. movies usually last for an hour-hour and a half. For example, harry potter books have a load more information compared to the movies. In these movies, some characters have been cut out, while other characters say things that they didn't say in the books. 

2nd Paragraph:
Watch movies doesn't really leave a lot of space for imagination. While reading about you think of what characters look and sound like in your head, However in movies, you can see how each character looks like and their emotions throughout the movie. But while reading you can create your own things from the story using the descriptive words in each sentence. 


I am aiming to improve my writing in the following 3 areas: Structure and Language, Sentence Structure, and Vocabulary
