Good writers often use personification.
What is personification?
It is giving human traits (qualities, feelings, action or characteristics) to inanimate or non-living objects (things, qualities etc).
Why do writers use personification?
Writers use personification to emphasise something or make it stand out. Personification makes the object more interesting and causes readers to look at the object from a new perspective.
Examples of personification
The sunflowers nodded their heads and greeted the visitors to the park.
The cool water beckoned invitingly to John.
The door groaned as Mike pushed it open.
The basketball was lying forlornly on the floor.
The flames danced wildly in the kitchen.
