Describing a person

When describing a person, historical, real-life or fictional, we usually start with the outward appearance and then go deeper into their personality. You can find information through direct descriptions, the character's actions, words and thoughts but also other characters' perspectives. Always look for evidence and think about the message the person or the author are communicating by making a person look and act in specific ways.

Meet Alex, the Friendly and Stylish 12-Year-Old

Alex is a 12-year-old boy with short, curly brown hair that always seems to be messy no matter how much he tries to tame it. His hazel eyes light up when he smiles, which is often, as he is known for his friendly and approachable demeanor. Alex's style is laid-back and sporty, usually rocking a pair of comfortable shorts, a graphic t-shirt, and sneakers that are perfect for playing outside with his friends.

In terms of personality, Alex is a true social butterfly, always eager to make new friends and include everyone in his games and conversations. He has a great sense of humor and is always ready with a joke or a funny story to share.
