Authors purpose has 3 things it could be, purswade, inform , & entertain. If an author is trying to purswade you, he will tell you cool facts about it. If an author is trying to inform you they will give you facts. If an author is trying to entertain you there will be characters, setting, plot, & it would be fictional.

To know if an author is entertaining you it would have charecters and it will make you sad,mad,happy,and other emotions. It would be fictional and it won't give you facts or try to make do something or sell you something.
