In the very last entery (Page 115) in Shackspeare Bats Cleanup, Kevin writes a poem entitled "Poem for Poetry". The entire poem is one big example of personifcation. One line in particular is "Lots of time you say exactly what you mean but in a different way, one that's not easy to forget." Kevin gives the poem the ability to speak and that is personification.

Page 26, " As if they were saying "Me! Me! ?Choose me! I'm the best one!" This is the kid describing how the dogs were acting when he had to chose one to keep.
An example of personification in the book, Love That Dog, is, "We walked past as if they were saying, 'Me! Me! Choose me! I'm the best one!'" I found this on page 26 and it is describing the dog talking. Which is giving the dog human traits.
I read the book "Tropical Secrets". One example of personification is, "...we run down to the beach where the music of waves sounds so joyful and wild. This example can be found on page 65.
In the book "Street Love", by Walter Dean Myers, I found personification on page 3. "We listen as Sledge's mocking voice lifts itself above the background clatter." Sledge's voice is personified in this scenario.
One example of personification in my book was "Morning dawns gray and ominous, the sky pregnant with indigo clouds." This is personification because it is saying the sky is pregnant. I found this on page 164.
After that we didn't say anything else but our bodies seemed to be carrying on a conversation of their own, leaning together into every curve of the road, sharing skin secrets from page 4 of What my Mother Doesn't Know. -JeKayla Curtis
