From whose point of view is the story being told?

At dawn, Mae Tuck set out on her horse for the wood at the edge of the village of Treegap. She was going there, as she did once every ten years, to meet her two sons, Miles and Jesse, and she was feeling at ease. At noon time, Winnie Foster, whose family owned the Treegap wood, lost her patience at last and decided to think about running away.

From whose point of view is the story being told?

Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, "and what is the use of a book," thought Alice, "without pictures or conversations?" So she was considering, in her own mind whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.

_{From whose point of view is the story being told?}

My brother is always getting into trouble. One day, he caught a frog outside in our backyard. He was so excited he forgot to wipe his wet, muddy feet before he ran back in the house. All of a sudden, the door flung open and in he ran: frog, mud, and soggy shoes. My mom screamed for him to get back outside PRONTO! I ran behind him and closed the door. Mom looked at me and shook her head as she started to smile.
