Kavi Visits the Bakery
Kavi pushed open the bakery door. "I saw golden loaves, I heard the oven timer ding, I smelled warm bread — all at once!" he hooted. Then he tried something clever: he put two senses in one sentence — I saw the golden loaves and smelled the warm bread. "And," said Kavi, "I swap plain words for vivid ones: not nice bread — warm, crusty bread. Now the reader is right here with me!"
