Hooks for Story and Essay


Hook #1
Nico was hanging by just a claw from the towering  Willis Tower. There was a pack of rabid wolves down below, just waiting for Nico to slip so they could tear him apart. Nico meowed for help, but it was to no avail since he was at least a hundred feet in the air. How had he gotten himself into this? His owner had been up in a helicopter, with Nico onboard. Nico had accidentally opened the door, and sailed down to the top of the tower where he now hung. Suddenly, the only thing keeping him from falling slipped. Nico plunged to his doom, everything around him a blur.

Hook #2
The Willis Tower is the tallest building in Chicago. It is an office building, but also a major tourist attraction. It is known for its skydecks on one of the top floors which you can stand in. You can't miss it! On a clear day, when standing  on one of the skydecks, you can see all of Chicago. You can also see quite a bit over Lake Michigan. If you go near the end of the day, you could see a beautiful sunset with a stunning view. So come on! If you want beautiful  views, neat pictures, and fun memories, come down to Chicago.
