To kill a mocking bird, scout says the following ‘Atticus told me to delete the adjectives and I have the facts’ what does this mean? give at least three examples of adjectives distorting the truth.

Atticus's comment is meant to convey to Scout that the truth often lies beneath fantastical stories and exagerations. In this case Atticus is pointing out that Jem is exaggerating. He wants Scout to understand that although her brother does have a point (in regards to school being pointless until sixth grade), she shouldn't take his words to heart....... just half listen.
