Adjectives
An adjective describes a noun. It tells you something about the noun and helps build a stronger picture in the reader’s mind.
Ex.) humongous moose green eggs and ham
caring counsellor First Nations' land
Canadian women’s hockey fan fuzzy, red sweater

Ex.) This is a dog. (Very basic!)
Try instead...
This is a hyperactive, tail-chasing, three-legged dog. (Now you have a much more specific image of the dog to imagine.)
