Literary Devices: Onomatopoeia Onomatopoeia is a figure of speech that uses words that sound like what they mean. For example, “quack” sounds like the sound a duck makes and “drip” sounds like the noise of water dripping. Onomatopoeia is a wonderful way to help the reader imagine the sounds of a story, and in this case, the sounds of Narnia. Find two examples of onomatopoeia on page 9 of the book and write them on the spaces below.
