Text features are special parts of a book that help you understand the story better. They include things like headings, pictures, and captions. For example, if you see a heading like 'The Life Cycle of a Butterfly,' it tells you what the section will be about. Pictures can show you what a butterfly looks like, and captions explain the pictures. Using these features makes reading easier and more fun!
