Use this post to keep track of the figurative language you find as you're reading. DO NOT LIST FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE EXAMPLES THAT OTHER CLASSMATES HAVE LISTED. Find new ones. Quote the book, list the page number, then identify which type of figurative language it is.
See example:
"He tore through the grass like a racehorse on turf and was at the other end of the oval much too soon" (p.19) ANALOGY
