Smiling ear to ear, Jillian took the adorable puppy named Knuckles into her hands and hugged him tightly. Which noun or pronoun does the participial phrase smiling ear to ear describe? Her Him Jillian Knuckles

Jillian

Explanation:

The sentence says that Jillian smiled ear to ear while taking the adorable puppy.

Otherwise, we could use the process of elimination:

It couldn't be "Her" because the sentence is "her hands."

It couldn't be "him" because "him" is the dog.

It couldn't be Knuckles because

1. Jillian was the one smiling

2. a dog probably couldn't smile ear to ear (that would look creepy)

Hope this helps :)
