Sandburg's use of literary techniques such as onomatopoeia, alliteration, repetition, and nonsense words makes the story playful and cheerful.

The onomatopoeic words in the story enhance the reader's imagination of the events:

Then the blue foxes and the yellow flongboos pattered pitty-pat, pitty-pat, each with feet and toenails, ears and hair, everything except tails, pattered scritch scratch over the stone floors out into the train shed.

Alliteration and repetition make the story musical and rhythmic, giving it a captivating quality:

And there on a high stool in a high tower on a high hill sits the Head Spotter of the Weather Makers . . . A big wind blew up and blew and blew till all the tails of the animals blew off.

The author also uses nonsense words such as flongboo, parleyhoo, and flangwayers. These words make the story fascinating and engaging for children, who can use their imaginations to understand what these words represent. For example, a reader might try to imagine what a "flongboo" or a "flangwayer" looks like:

It is hard for the yellow flongboo to lose his tail because it lights up his way when he sneaks at night on the prairie, sneaking up on the flangwayers, the hippers and hangjasts, so good to eat.

These nonsense words also provide a comedic touch to the story:

The animals picked a committee of representatives to represent them in a parleyhoo to see what steps could be taken by talking to do something.

Would you sacrifice money, comfort, and security for what you believe in? Give me a response as to WHY you would sacrifice money
oee [108]

Yes.

You're belief is essentially your core, and without it, you would not survive. It is not a true belief if you are going to give it away easily. Ever heard of the question, "What is the meaning of life?". What everybody finds is the meaning is extremely different from everyone-else.The meaning is shaped through your actions, beliefs, your influences, and even nature. Without 'beliefs', you are empty inside.

As the quote says: "<em>Yet when I considered all the works that my hands had accomplished and what I had toiled to achieve, I found everything to be futile, a pursuit of the wind; there was nothing to be gained under the sun.</em>"

Without meaning, you would think everything is rubbish, and that you had no purpose in life.

How do you find purpose? You find purpose through your own core beliefs, as well as those around you. When everyone's beliefs has a positive aspect to it, humanity is able to grow for the better, and everything would work out well. If the beliefs of some are not right, it would destroy themselves and possibly others too.

Personally, I would sacrifice money, comfort, and security, for what I believe in, because it is a part of me. If i sacrifice my beliefs, it would be like taking away my inside, leaving me as an empty shell. Without the beliefs, "<em>Every is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.</em>"

One can argue that if one is rich, and has all the goods in the world, they would be happy they would be secure and comfortable, but that is not true, for "<em>For what profits a man if he gains the whole world but loses his own soul.</em>"

In the end, it is up to the viewer, should one keep their worldly riches and desire but find no meaning, or should one continue in their beliefs, in hope of what they believing being the correct, and the answer to their meaning of life?
