One key element is the setting. In a retelling of 'Wuthering Heights', you should paint a vivid picture of the desolate moors, which greatly influence the mood and the characters' behavior. Character development is also vital. Heathcliff's transformation from an orphan to a vengeful man is central to the story. And don't forget the themes like love, revenge, and class differences that run through the novel.

In a retelling of a classic novel, the voice matters. If it's a retelling of 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland', you can choose to have a whimsical and curious voice, just like Alice herself. The plot points such as her fall down the rabbit hole, the strange encounters with the Cheshire Cat and the Queen of Hearts must be included. And the underlying theme of growing up and self - discovery should also be reflected in the retelling.

And then there's the big bad wolf who tries to blow their houses down. The sequence is crucial, like first the pigs build their houses, then the wolf comes along.
