Activity designed around that chapter, for example, in The Wind in the Willows, Grahame uses lots of literary devices to describe the river, pupils have to copy his style and produce their own piece of writing. Answers and models provided. As an English teacher, I have designed these for other faculties to teach during their Literacy lessons, so they are extremely easy to follow.
