<span>The point of view that is used in the excerpt </span>The Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum is a third person. Third person point of view uses pronouns such as he, she, it or the name of the person. I would like to highlight the wprds that makes it a third person point of view.
When <u>Dorothy</u> was left alone <u>she</u> began to feel hungry. So <u>she</u> went to the cupboard and cut <u>herself</u> some bread, which <u>she</u> spread with butter. She gave some to <u>Toto</u>, and taking a pail from the shelf she carried it down to the little brook and filled it with clear, sparkling water.
So form the sentences that I chose above, the pronouns that were used are Dorothy, she and Toto.
I'd consider it a sentence.
Option a. the beginning of a story, when the characters are introduced
Exposition is the insertion of the important background within a story. It is the process of scattering information through the text. Incluing is a technique in which the reader is gradually exposed to background information about the world in which the story is set. The idea is to clue the readers into the world the author is building them without being aware of it.
