Read the attached poem, choose 3 lines. What is being compared and personified in each line

the stars winked at me
the book read itself to me
the tree whispered in the wind
this pencil wrote words perfectly
the computer has a mind of its own
my car is screaming to be washed
those cookies are calling my name
the car danced on the wet road

Answer:

the stars winked at me

Stars are thing that is being personified because they aren't human, they can't wink.

the book read itself to me

Books can't read or talk, so that's what's being personified in that line.

the tree whispered in the wind

Come on! Trees can't talk! The trees are what's being personified in this line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Personification is describing an object that is not human by giving it human qualities.

Comparing is describing two object by using the words "like" or "as".

None of these lines consist of the words "like" or "as", so there is nothing being compared in this poem.

I really hope this helps you out!
