First person is written when the author is in the story. They use the words; I, me and my etc. e.g. " Iopened the door with my old keys."
Second person is written when the author is putting the reader into the story. The author uses words like; you and your etc. e.g. "You opened the door withyour old keys."
Third person is written when the author wants to write like they and the reader are 'backstage' and are watching the scene. They use the words; they, he and she etc. e.g. "They opened the door with her old keys."
Each type can be used to advantage for different effects on the story.

In a first person narrative, the story is told from the perspective of a character using "I" or "we" pronouns. In a third person narrative, the story is told from an outside perspective using "he," "she," or "they" pronouns.

What is the difference between narrative and informational text?
A narrative is a story told from one person's perspective. An informational text is perspective-neutral. For example, a narrative would be "He saw the forklift driven by a good friend of his brother-in-law." The same event in an informational text format would be "The forklift was driven by a good friend of Bob's brother-in-law." The difference is who is relating the information - in the first example, "he" is the channel for the information while in the second example, there is no specific individual providing the information.
