“ even though it’s the writings of a child, its hers and it’s her secret”
What do you mean? Reading and writing are two different things..
Here is an edited version of your initial answer (it was still great):
It was a murky
and dreary day outside with nothing to do since the rain wouldn’t stop pouring
down. Wandering around the monotonous house aimlessly, I suddenly found myself
in front of the antique book shelf. I snatched at the first book I glimpsed at
and thought, “At least this’ll give me something to do.” The book discussed the
life of a girl who lived in India which I’ve never even stepped a foot in. Therefore,
it was very exciting and adventurous to read. Hours went by and soon my mother shrieked,
“Claire, the sun it out, would you like to go out and play?” I then responded, “No,
I would much rather take the weight off my feet and read my book.”
Let me know if you need anything else.

Answer:
D. Phrase.
Explanation:
In the given sentence, the underlined words <em>"under my grandmother's bed"</em> is a phrase. This is because phrases are words or groups of words that do not form a clause or are not a full sentence of its own or do not have a verb and at least one subject.
So, the underlined words in the sentence is an example of a phrase and are used only to add detail or information to the already completed sentence <em>"I found some old coins".</em>
Thus, the correct answer is a phrase.
<span>C. while and however
These two words show that differences are being stated about two separate things.
In this example they are used to contrast geese and seagulls:
"while" geese are one thing, seagulls are another.
Or, seagulls are one way "however," geese are another way. </span>
