Introduction to an explanatory for an opinion essay. In Moonshot by Brian Floca, there are many fascinating illustrations. I think the illustrations on pages 10 and 11 are awe-inspiring. I think this for two reasons. First, I think that the illustration shows how suspenseful the countdown was. Second, I think it is really exciting to see the flames shoot out of the rocket. Introduction to an explanatory for an opinion essay. Body paragraph of an explanatory essay. Introduction to an opinion essay. Which description fits the paragraph best?

How do you know? It names the text title and author (“Moonshot, by Brian Floca”). It provides a topic (“many fascinating illustrations”). It includes an opinion statement (“I think the illustrations page [10] and [11] are awe-inspiring.”). It includes two reasons (“suspenseful countdown” and “impressive flames”).

Moonshot by Brian Floca describes the stages of the Apollo 11 mission Moonshot by Brian Floca describes the stages of the Apollo 11 mission. There are other books that also tell about the Apollo 11 mission. Sending men to the moon was dangerous. Why is it NOT an example of a paragraph for an opinion essay? There is no opinion statement (I think) There is no clear topic.
