The Sun Played Hide-and-Seek

A Personification Story

  • Interest Level: Grade 2 - Grade 5
  • Reading Level: Grade 3

A young student has to give a presentation about personification—and she’s petrified! How can she explain something that gives human traits to things that aren’t human? If only she could take a trip to the park and show everyone the way the fountain hiccups, the daffodils dance, and the wind whispers a tune . . . or maybe that’s just what she’ll have to do!
