Photo-Narrative Text - Texts written in this way are fashoined to sound like someone is showing the reader a photo album and narrating the story of each picture.  As each new page is turned and a new photo or picture is revealed, it is accompanied by narration such as, "This is my sister Mary Jane's birthday party." (Wondrous Words by Katie Wood Ray).
