Moreover, by focusing on the use of semiotic resources to maximize the persuasive effect, Jewitt et al.’s social semiotics are applied to approach to multimodality. Social and cultural construction influence meaning. This study implemented analytic descriptive method to explain the phenomena. The findings highlight meaning is invented using all semiotic modes which initiate children to experience imaginatively a specific journey.
