A technology-challenged, famed book author needs help summarizing key story elements from one of her stories for English Language Learners (ELLs). These illustrated summaries are meant to quickly tell the story using simpler vocabulary and more pictures. This summary re-telling will provide the necessary schema or structure that ELL students need to have PRIOR to reading the full story. Help the author summarize the story into bite-sized elements and share it as an animated GIF.
