Personification is the humanizing of an object, e.g "the tree speaking in the wind".  A metaphor is used to make direct comparisons between two subjects. An onomatopoeia is a word that shows "sound", e.g BANG. Alliteration is a number of words all beginning with the same letter, e.g Adam ate apple at Alabama.

While deciduous trees of temperate forests lose their leaves in winter, conifers never lose their needles.

The point of view in this excerpt is definitely third person, because nouns such as Dorothy, and pronouns such as she are used throughout to indicate third person.
However, if you also need to decide whether it is limited or omniscient, I'd choose limited - because we can only see what she is doing, and not what she is thinking and feeling.
