Answer:
I assume you need to find an example of personification in the novel. Here is a complete sentence with the personification in bold: "During the week before we left, the sound of the wind was hurry, hurry, hurry, and at night even the silent darkness whispered rush, rush, rush." This example is from Chapter 2. The Chickabiddy Starts a Story.
Explanation:
Personification is <u>a figure of speech that ascribes human features or qualities to non-human things - animals, objects, or notions</u>. In this example, we have darkness as a non-human notion. Yet it whispers, which only humans can do. By using a personification here, the author enlivens the scene, producing a memorable dramatic effect.
