A Sound of Thunder Scavenger Hunt
Similes
A sound like a gigantic bonfire burning
This makes Africa seem like Illinois
Step on a mouse and you leave your print like a Grand Canyon across eternity
Time steps aside like an airplane hitting an air pocket
Everything cupping in another like Chinese boxes
Metaphors
The head itself, a ton of sculptured stone
Exposing a fence of teeth
Sheathed over in a gleam of pebbled skin like the mail of a terrible warrior
Each lower leg was a piston
A great evil god
Personification
The Machine slowed; its scream fell to a murmur
Far birds’ cries blew on a wind
Foreshadowing
“We guarantee nothing,” said the official, “except the dinosaurs.”
“We’re here to give you the severest thrill a real hunter ever asked for.”
Touches
It clutched trees, pulled them with it
He fumbled crazily at the thick slime on his boots
A touch of the hand and this burning would, on the instant, beautifully reverse itself
Theme
Remain calm even in nerve-wracking situations
Smell
There was a thing to the air, a chemical taint so subtle
Roses sweeten the air
The smell of tar and an old salt sea, moist grasses, and flowers the color of blood
Sights
It towered thirty feet above half of the trees
Embedded in the mud, glistening green and gold and black, was a butterfly
He dropped to his knees
Sound
There was a sound of thunder
The monster roared
A terrible scream
