Explanation

The sentence 'There were five fat frogs flicking their tongues at me!' is an example of alliteration - the repetition of the 'f' sound at the beginning of consecutive words (five, fat, frogs, flicking). A metaphor compares unlike things, a simile uses 'like' or 'as', and rhyme involves ending sounds.
