Some authors choose to use incidents or conflict to begin the story. 

Examples:

• ‘How to eat Fried Worms’ by Thomas Rockwell begins with Billy, Alan, Joe and Tom arguing over what they would or would not eat.
• ‘The Search for Delicious’ has everyone in the court arguing about what foods they think are delicious.
• Almost every book in the ‘Harry Potter’ series by J.K. Rowling starts with a disagreeable incident at the Dursleys.
