Toy Story Point of View and Perspective

What is the point of view in this passage?

As I walked through my bedroom door, my mom came to stand beside me. The walls, once decorated

with posters, and the bookshelves once covered in toys and games, were now barren. Only two boxes

remained—an old collection of toys and one last box ready to go with me to college. Mom gasped and

threw her arms around me as she saw the empty room. My excitement dampened when I realized

how sad my mom was to see me go. I couldn’t believe today was the day I would be leaving for college,

and even though I was excited, I sure was going to miss my family.

What is the point of view in this passage?

When I walked into my oldest child’s bedroom, I was shocked to see the bare walls and empty shelves.

It felt like yesterday that I was looking into this same room watching him play happily with his favorite

toys, zooming Buzz Lightyear through the air. Today, there are only two boxes left. As I hug him

tightly, I whisper in his ear that I wish I could always be with him. My heart breaks to see my boy

going off to college, and I’m not sure how I’ll get along without him here at home. I’m reassured when

he tells me that I’ll always be with him. I just can’t believe my dear son is leaving today.

What is the point of view in this passage?

Peering through the cardboard box, Woody could see Andy coming through the door, followed closely

by his mom. He watched eagerly, excited to see what would happen. When mom began to cry while

hugging Andy, Woody knew something was wrong. He quickly realized that he would be leaving,

separated from his friends stuffed in the box sitting on the floor. Woody turned his head away

from the sad scene and came face to face with an old picture of himself, Andy, and his best buds.

His eyes lowered, and his heart sank with sadness.
