Planning a section of a narrative based on 'The Borrowers'

The purpose of the build-up is to build action and suspense leading up to the climax. In this section of the build-up, Arrietty sets off on her first borrowing expedition and reaches the infamous clock. A range of precise and ambitious vocabulary is used to describe key moments in the build-up. ‘Show and tell’ language shows a character’s feelings by describing their actions, body language and facial expressions. A plan contains precise vocabulary, is written in note format and follows a sequence of events.
