How does the mood impact the story and reader

You did not provide a story, but I can try my best to help you.

Explanation:

If a mood in a story is a certain way, it can impact the reader in that way. For example:

You are reading a book. Characters are sad and the mood is very sad. This will most likely make the reader of the book sad.

If the characters in a book are happy, then the reader will most likely feel joy or happiness.

i believe it is he has been given the drum as a joke.
