Example argument

The descriptive language of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone is what makes the novel such a wonderful reading experience. In the first book of the series, Harry, as well as the reader, are first introduced to the world of magic. Right from the start, Rowling shows the vast scale of her imaginative capabilities. Rowling’s descriptive style allows the reader to truly imagine what Hogwarts must be like, which makes the story come alive for readers of all ages.
