I agree with your answers to #s 2 and 3. However, I think repetition is the best answer to # 1. As I recall these books, the authors use a lot of repetition. You might also check this site.

Have you listened to and/or read those stories? Repetition is throughout. Ms. Sue is correct.

As I understand referential language, it's the way a child learns to speak -- first with one word -- then adding one, two, three more words -- to make sentences.
But many different techniques promote literacy skills. Repetition is one of these techniques. Children love the repetition and often virtually memorize these stories. They then will "read" the story to another person. As they do that, they're making the connection between oral speech and written language -- a necessary prerequisite for reading.
