As for my little brother he works in a next level workbook for the next school year. But that not all we do, we go to the beach and amusment parks.

Literary Devices

Quotation: If we want to go downstairs, we have to first bend down and then jump,cause the step has gone."

Response: In this quotation Anne Frank is describing the new way to get downstairs. This literary device is an example of imagery. Imagery is the way of describing using the five sences or giving the reader a mental image. In this case it is imagery because Anna desribes the way to get down stairs.
