a thesis statement with a claim

Explanation

A personal narrative’s first paragraph should draw readers in with a hook, introduce what the story is about, and provide important background information they need to follow it. An argument, supporting evidence, and a thesis with a claim are features of argumentative writing, not the usual purpose of a personal narrative’s opening.
