Setting Description | The Gruffalo

A setting description describes what a place looks like, smells like, sounds like and feels like.

To describe what a place looks like, people use adjectives like: tall, short, tiny and etc. This gives more description and lets the reader have an idea of the colour, texture and quality.

To describe what a place sounds like, people also use adjectives such as: loud, silent, noisy and etc. This gives more description and lets the reader get an idea of the sound.

When describing a feeling, people use adjectives such as: hard, soft, smooth and etc. This gives the reader an idea of the texture.

When describing a smell, people use adjectives such as: smelly, fresh, clean and etc. This gives the reader an idea of the scent of an object or thing.

The four senses can help people get a better understanding of the setting.
