Teaching Personification with the Picture Book Tough Cookie

One of my favorite literary devices to teach is personification.  Students enjoy pretending that inanimate objects have human characteristics.  Tough Cookie is a private eye that lives at the bottom of a cookie jar.  This book by David Wisniewski is a great example of personification.
