Where can you find a hyperbole in A Wrinkle in Time?

Answer 1

I found two, but I'm positive there are more. The page numbers are from MY book.

Pg. 25 Mrs. Whatsit says: "If you have some liniment I'll put it on my dignity."

Pg. 185 Mr. Murry says: "We're children playing with dynamite."

Answer 2

Oh, a hyperbole is like a big, colorful brushstroke in a painting! In "A Wrinkle in Time," you might find a hyperbole when someone says something really exaggerated, like "I've told you a million times!" It's like adding a splash of imagination to the story, making it more vibrant and fun to read. Just like adding a happy little tree to a landscape painting!

"'Clear as mud', Calvin said."

"For crying out loud"

In chapter 12, Mrs. Whatsit is talking to Calvin about sonnets, and he is growing impatient. L'Engle writes on page 198, "Mrs. Whatsit's voice was stern, and for a moment Calvin stopped pawing the ground like a nervous colt."
