John Marsden Writing Topic #33
Describe a common object without saying what it is**
I’m white, plastic, live in the kitchen and can be plugged into an electrical socket. There are others like me who are metal, make noise and can be used on the stove. I can only house and provide services with water, slowly but surely increasing its temperature. I’m used by a lot of people every day, multiple times a day to help with waking up and/or cooking.
Do you know who or more accurately what I am?
