She look like a bird of prey. A hawk that could carry off a sheep."

My response is that this quote is using simile because of how Alex is comparing his grandmother to a bird because of her staring into the window.

My response is that this quote is using sensory detail by Alex seeing how skinny her arms was, and simile to show a comparison between her skinny arms and bone and skin.
