Question

Can someone help me create my essay outline for my comparative essay? Anyone? Please..

Answer 1

what are you comparing

Answer 2

I'm comparing A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith (fiction) and The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls (memoire)

Answer 3

You should have 5 paragraphs.

1. Introduction. Mention your THREE comparisons here. Your readers need to know what the paper is about. Also, don't forget your thesis.

2. Comparison #1. Give at least 3 supporting facts or examples.

3. Comparison #2. Give at least 3 supporting facts or examples.

4. Comparison #3. Give at least 3 supporting facts or examples.

5. Conclusion. Summarize. Never give NEW information in your conclusion. Mention your three comparisons again. Don't forget your thesis.

Discuss each of your comparisons, in it's entirety, then move on to the next. Don't flip-flop back and forth. It will confuse your readers.
