Bud, Not Buddy is a children's novel written by Christopher Paul Curtis.

The narrator uses simile to describe the sound of the woman's shoes.

Simile is a figure of speech that uses "like" or "as" to compare two different things and show a similarity between them. Here, the woman's high-heeled shoes are compared to the sound of firecrackers going off on a wooden floor
