One example of a simile in To Kill a Mockingbird is when Scout compares the winter air to "smelling like sherbet lemons." Another example is when Atticus describes Mayella Ewell as "a red geranium in a sea of dust." These similes serve to create vivid imagery and enhance the reader's understanding of characters and settings in the novel.

For example, an author might mention a historical figure, a work of literature, or an event to make a comparison.

Yes, it is possible to kill a mockingbird, but please don't. It's not very nice, and in some places it is even illegal, to kill any songbird.(Fun fact: mockingbird is one word, not two words.)
