Narrative Text

Narrative text tells imaginative stories using elements like characters, plot, setting, and theme. It can be fiction like novels and poems, or non-fiction like memoirs and news stories. Common narrative structures include an orientation establishing who, when, where; a complication presenting a problem; a resolution solving the problem; and optionally a re-orientation conclusion. Language features in narratives include nouns, past tense verbs, connectives linking events, adjectives, and action verbs depicting events. For example, the Japanese folktale "Momotaro the Peach Boy" tells of an old couple finding a baby in a magical peach who grows up to save their village from ogres with the help of animal friends.

MOMOTARO THE PEACH BOY
A long time ago, there lived an old and poor couple in a village in Japan. They didn’t
wish for gold or fine clothes. They only wished for a child.
One day, the old woman washed clothes in a river. While washing, she was also wishing
for a child. Then, a giant peach came floating down the river. She took it home and would cut
it.
There was a human voice from that peach saying not to cut it. Suddenly it split open; a
baby boy jumped out of that peach. Those old people were very happy and named him
Momotaro which means Peach Boy.
Time went by and people in that village were afraid of Oni Monsters who stole their
belongings. When Momotaro was about 15 years old, he wanted to save his village from Oni
Monsters. Momotaro’s parents were very proud of Momotaro. His father gave him a sword;
mother gave him a bag of dumplings.
On the way, Momotaro met a dog, a monkey and a hawk. He shared those dumplings to
them. Those animals joined him to fight Oni Monsters. Being a good leader, Momotaro
encouraged them to work together.
Finally, Momotaro sucessfully forced Oni leader to surrender. Then Momotaro with his
friends took treasure then shared it to all people in the village. Momotaro’s parents were very
happy that Momotaro came back safely.
