Narratives Sequenced by a Series of Objects, People, or Animals - Texts structured in this way tell stories that are sequenced primarily by moving through various objects, people, or animals, rather that the more traditional event sequencing of many narrative texts.  These texts move the narrative along by moving from object to object, person to person, or animal to animal and the reader comes to expect that the next part of the story will be connected to the next object, animal, or person. (Wondrous Words by Katie Wood ray).
