Examples Edward - Gold pocket watch As a memory of Abilene, I have chosen Edward's golden pocket watch. I have chosen it because it was the last thing he saw when he was thrown overboard the Queen Mary. It would remind Edward of his life with Abilene in Egypt Street. He would remember the lovely lifestyle he had with his rich family and how much Abilene loved and cared for him. It would also make sure Edward didn't forget how rude and arrogant he used to be so he won't go back to his old ways! Susannah - shell Next, I have selected a beautiful, delicate shell which will remind Edward of the time he was stranded on the sea bed of the Atlantic Ocean. Edward was feeling lonely, left out and isolated so the shell will help him remember how bad it was. This will make sure he stays humble and doesn't become vain and rude. Now you write about an item from each adventure that Edward has gone on and include why it is so special to him. Remember to include the following Must: use a range of powerful adjectives, verbs and adverbs. Should: use causal connectives to explain Edward's feelings- because, if, though, as a result, so and also. Bet you can’t!: use appropriate, specific nouns.
