One example of figurative language is when he is describing the families on the Indian reservation. On page 89 he says "Indian families stick together like Gorilla Glue, the strongest adhesive in the world." He said this because of the shape his family is in. His dad is an alcoholic and gambles away money that they do not have. His mom is a shoplifter and his sister is in drugs. Even though they still are together.
