Question
Find the simile in the passage and type it into your response.

My mom sighs. "We can't do this without you. Being around kids is good for Natalie." . . .

My mom is like a onewoman commando unit. She could win land battles, air battles, water battles, outer space battles too, probably. I wonder if there would be time to get Natalie and then get back to school in time to play ball with the guys. It would be embarrassing to have her there, but at least I could play.
