The Building Of Imagination

The library is a public building that is open to anyone. It is where people can borrow books and use the computers for a short period of time. Libraries are open everyday from the morning until the afternoon (public holidays can change times). I am going to explain what the non-fiction and fiction section is about and also what the librarian does.

Non-fiction books is about facts. They help you with research for homework.This section is sorted by the dewey decimal system. Making finding books easier. The dewey decimal system arranges books by their general topic (Science, technology, language etc.). This system cuts down the time wondering around the library looking for the book. People can ask the librarian what dewey decimal number the topic is under.

The fiction section is all about made up stories. From your happily ever after ending fairy tales to your never ending book series, this section is where you find it. Fiction books are sorted differently than the non-fiction books. It is sorted by the author’s first 3 letters of their last name. Sometimes libraries arrange the series books separately. These book usually don’t have pictures and lets the reader’s imagination run wild.

What makes the library tidy is the librarian. Most libraries have more than one librarian. These people help the people to issue or find books. If there was no librarian, the library would be a wreck.

I have explained what the library is and what the main sections are about. Libraries are important because they offer part-time jobs. The library was built so that people can read in a quiet place.

People's Feelings

I am learning to write an explanation.


There are lots of ways to express/show people’s feelings.


When people are happy they show it by smiling. They might be celebrating or jumping for joy when they are really happy. When they speak, they have a positive/cheerful tone. He/she won’t do things half hearted and might be hyped up.


You can tell when people are scared when they scream or start crying. Some people curse and even punch at the thing that frightened them. On a worse case scenario, people can get heart attack/seizures. Sometimes they start shaking and their face turn white.


People show sadness when they cry and want to be alone. This feeling gets triggered when something bad happens like a family member passing away. It can also be triggered when they get bullied. The person will look like they have lots of things on their mind.


The last feeling is anger. People show anger by clenching their fist and their face is all scrunched up. there are two ways to take anger: verbally (like teasing, mocking etc.) and physically (hitting, kicking etc.). This can lead to rivalry and fights. Some people try not to show their anger but some can’t and might end up committing suicide.

There are more feeling and even more ways to show it.

The Amazing Birds

Penguins are birds that are only found in the Southern Hemisphere. There are 17 different types of penguin species alive but one of the most common question asked is why can’t they fly?


They have have lost their ability to fly because where they live there was no need to fly. Their wings have become smaller and has adapted to help them survive in the conditions that their habitats are in. The Penguin’s wings have now turned into fully functional “flippers” meaning that they can swim instead of flying. They use this ability to catch prey and help them to get away from any predators that are threatening them. Their feathers also have adapted, it has grown fluffier to help them keep warm under the conditions of the water.


It’s amazing how the penguins have evolved and adapted to their own habitat.
