Figurative Language

“The great wolf’s eyes softened at the sight of the little wolves, then quickly hardened into brittle yellow jewels as he scanned the flat tundra.” pg. 8 metaphor

“Silver moved in a halo of light, for the sun sparkled on the guard hairs that grew out over the dense underfurand she seemed to glow. “ pg. 17 metaphor

“The three adults paid tribute to Amaroq until he was almost smothered with love; then he bayed a wild note that sounded like the wind on the frozen sea.” pg. 19 hyperbole & simile
