Time to learn new words

          Sometimes we can compare two different things using the words as and like.

          For example,
          •  Dorothy oiled Tin Woodman’s joints and they were as good as new.


          •  It would be as easy as to give the Scarecrow brains.


          When we compare two different things using as and like, we call them similes.


          Use the picture clues to complete each sentence.
