PRACTICE F:  I’m Bringing a Guest” (descriptive)

PROMPT:  
You want to bring your best friend along for a trip to visit your relatives, but first they want to hear all about him/her. How would you describe your best friend to someone who has never met him/her? Write a practice essay describing your best friend in detail. You can talk about how your friend looks, talks, and dresses, but also try to describe the qualities that make the person such a good friend. Be as specific as possible, and provide enough details so your relatives could picture your best friend in their mind.
