An educational video for kids in which they'll discover the characteristics of three literary genres: stories, poems and plays.

A story is a short narrative with characters, a setting, a plot, and a theme, structured into an introduction, a conflict, and a resolution. A poem is a work written in verse that, through stanzas, rhyme, rhythm, and meter, conveys emotions and feelings. A play is a dialogue-based literary genre performed before an audience on a stage, through a script and characters portrayed by actors.

With simple, relatable examples, this video introduces young viewers to the wonderful world of literature, showing how the stories they read, listen to, and act out every day are created. They will discover:
