Ideas Sequenced by a Series of Objects, People, Animals, or Concepts - These texts are very similar the Narratives Sequenced, the difference being that these texts are not storytelling narratives, so the movement through the series of objects, people, animals, or concepts doesn't work to tell a single story.  Instead, these texts follow an idea through these various things.  For Example, Do They Scare You? looks at the idea of very unusual, some might say scary animals and why they look the way they do.  This structure is quite common and very useful for many types of informational writing, but can also be used for descriptive textx.
