What is the difference between "tone" & "mood" in literature?

Tone:  tone is set by an author and it often reflects their attitude or it can be used to present a character in a certain way. Authors convey tone through their word choice, punctuation, and sentence structure.

Mood: is perceived by the reader, it is the atmosphere of a piece and the overall feeling it conveys to the reader. Authors convey mood through figurative language and literary devices, letting the reader feel whatever mood the writing evokes.
