Synthesis: Read "That's a Whopper!" below and then write/create 3 exaggerations of your own:
That's a Whopper!
When we exaggerate, we make something seem bigger or more important than it really is. Your friend might say, "My uncle's car is so big three elephants could fit inside it." You would know that was not true but you would know that it's a really big car. An author sometimes exaggerates to make a character's action or feeling seem stronger or more important.
