W.A.L.T: write our own similes and metaphors based on the characters in Paperboy

Prior Knowledge (PK): In your own words, describe the following:

Metaphor	Something you say that means something else.
Simile	A sentence that describes what they are doing with the help of something else.

Your Task:

Describe what the following phrases mean or represent. You might need to flip back to the pages to remind
yourself of the context.

Metaphor: “Mrs. Worthington and her red hair. That was the dessert of my thinking” (p. 154).

I think this means that Mrs. Worthington's hair was the last thing on little mans mind like dessert is the last
thing you might eat in a meal.

Simile: “[Mr. Spiro] sounded official like he was calling a baseball game on the radio” (p. 30).

I think this means that Mr. Spiro was talking in a game commentator voice.

Write a metaphor that best describes Little Man’s relationship with Mam	Little Man and Mam fit together like strawberry's and chocolate fondue.
Write a simile that describes Little Man’s communication with TV boy	When TV boy is infront of the TV he seems as still as a rock.
