No. Metaphors do not use the terms "like" or "as" in them. Example: "I'm so hungry, I can eat a horse." You don't really mean you can eat a horse, it's just an expression. A simile uses like or as. Example: "The baby was so small, it looked like a doll." See how they are different? I hope I helped! If not, look up similes and metaphors on google.
"...he could fluff up his tail till it looked like a bottle brush..."

One simile in "Rip Van Winkle" is "looked as sour as vinegar." One personification is the description of the mountains "raising their lofty summits till they were almost lost in the clouds." A metaphor is when Rip is described as a "democratic philosopher" when he is compared to the statue of George III.
Here are a few examples of similes describing someone as skinny: "She was as thin as a pencil," "He looked like a scarecrow in the field," and "Her arms were as slender as twigs." These comparisons vividly illustrate the person's slimness using relatable imagery.
"living like fleas on a dog" "as full of activity as a factory" "the floor looked like christmas morning".

Oh, honey, Coraline is chock-full of similes and metaphors like a buffet at a fancy restaurant. The other mother's button eyes are as creepy as a spider in your bed, while the parallel world is a metaphorical funhouse mirror of Coraline's reality. It's like a literary playground for your brain, so buckle up and enjoy the ride!
She looked wondrous in her purple dress!
