Explanation:

In this excert, the author is making a convincing case. He uses short words to create a clear understanding of the children and other listeners. When comparing his writing and other familiar stories, this one is different because of the choice of words that quickly comprehended. Proverbs have been used in some instances; however, the words explaining them are short and precise. This helps children to master them quickly and write to them when they are asked to during their classwork tasks.

the correct answer is "the rhythm and rhyme scheme add to an eerie and suspenseful tone". poetry is literature written in stanzas and lines that use rhythm to express feelings and ideas. poets will pay particular attention to the length, placement, and grouping of lines and stanzas. this is called form. lines or whole stanzas can be rearranged in order to create a specific effect on the reader.
