METAPHOR - in chapter 1, Digory tells Polly he is crying
because he has been "brought up in a beastly hole like this" - he is referring to
London.
PERSONIFICATION - in chapter 1, Digory tells Polly
that he is freaked out by "Uncle Andrew's step" that comes creeping up the passageway" -
this is giving life to the step
PERSONIFICATION - in
chapter 1, when Digory and Polly find themselves in Uncle Andrew's study, Polly's "heart
came into her mouth" - a way of saying that she was frightened, but a heart cannot come
into one's mouth really
METAPHOR - When Uncle Andrew tells
Digory he must go to the "Other" place with a green ring to bring Polly back, Digory
realizes "the trap he is in" - he is not literally in a trap, but this metaphor means he
has no choice - he must go to save Polly
