Answer:

Can be read in one sitting
Has one plot
Deals with a single problem.

Explanation:

A short story is a narrative piece that presents ideas and themes in a lesser length. Since it has a shorter scope it must present one plot, deal with a single problem, avoid overcomplicating things, and should explore a precise theme through specific narrative devices. A short story rarely develops both main and minor characters, merely because of its length.

Novels, on the other hand, can develop both main and minor characters, and focus on multiple issues throughout the story.

Because the sunshine moved through a blue sky it became very clear to see the nest in the tree. As Jane climbed the tree anxious to see if there was any eggs in the nest Johnny Jane's little brother decided to shake the tree to distrub Jane's attempt to reach the nest as she climbed. The higher Jane climbed the more anger billed in Johnny because her actions to clumb showed more success to her intensions..

So johnny seeing that he couldn't distract Jane from her attempt his attitude changed and he decided not to distract his siater but to see what she would find in the nest when she climbed down.
