Morgen’s Reviews > Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows > Status Update

There is many figurative language in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. One piece of it is: "...Anyone who thinks Dumbledore was as white as his beard is in for a rude awakening (25)!" The 'white' part is a metaphor because white often represents pure, good, etc. The 'as his beard' part is a simile because it compares two things using like or as.
