Haley Smith Tyler and I hope you've already watched me read the library dragon by Carmen deedy cuz this Weston is based on idioms that are found in the library the first was look at what an idiom is in some examples they first of all on him is a form of figurative language that it doesn't make sense literally a test the test was a piece of cake wasn't literally a piece of cake that just means it was very very easy up in the air on vacation plans were up in the air that means they were literally up in the air that just means that you were undecided about what you're going to do raining cats and dogs it was raining cats and dogs so our picnic should be cancelled don't mean that it was raining very very hard if someone says they're they're tired and need to hit the hay bed if someone says I would buy that car but it cost an arm and a leg that's very very expensive to hi Nick Harmon dating used in the library Dragon this book is the perfect book to study idioms I hope that you're going to get yourself a copy and try to find these things yourself also along with a few more list of all we're looking at the library Dragon when I was reading to you about how the library Dragon feels about the children touching her books when she said the very thought of sticky little fingers touching and clutching Towing and clawing spearing and sharing her precious looks just like her hot under the collar hot under the collar is an idiom that means they're made her very very angry hot under the collar the next time we saw where the children said well that's settled whispered Albert Hoops where there's smoke there's fire and that Miss scales is a real dragon all right where is there smoke there's fire yes Ruby smoke where there's fire but in this case where there's smoke there's fire means that it's if there's enough talkin about it that they say sometimes one part of something might be true but that's an idiom after all okay now let's look at the next one we were thinking about how the principal tried to talk to me scales because of her tree children in the library said first the principal tried to reason with Miss scales but his plan backfired instead of cooling down he just stands Flames cool her down with me like he would make her calmer but the expression fanned the Flames means always makes someone even more so in this case much more angry when they were talking about the children not going to the library anymore we're here at the bottom that the children had missed reading and story time for weeks and weeks and their grades were going up in smoke if something is going up in smoke typically we think of something is on fire but in this case it means that is destroyed or is no longer there to there braids for Going Up In Smoke when sweet Miss lemon tried to speak with a library dragon and she was telling her how she felt about it she said you you know with scales we all love the books as much as you do but the library belongs to the children Library Dragon sit good night Miss lemon you slay me in this case you slay me actually means you amuse me where you make me laugh but carmindy is a Master a weaving figurative language all the way through this book that has to do with dragons and fire you play me Sochi has a very effective use of idioms how to another she referred to miss lemon as a Spitfire and a Spitfire once again an idiom cannot be interpreted literally a Spitfire is a person who gets angry easily or very over excited but in this case she said she's she gets over-excited but that's a Spitfire weather what the heck and ask the children were to listen it's a story was red then we hear everyone was listening even the library dragon and her ears were burning notice once again another idiom that has to do with what smoke or fire her ears were burning but in this case whenever you hear someone say that Macy's day just know or feel like someone is talking about them at that time but in this case we say we hear that Miss lot of scale said her ears were burning remember language that cannot be understood by taking the words literally and I hope that you will get the library dragon and then she will try to find as many idioms as you
