Some examples of hyperbole in "When You Reach Me" by Rebecca Stead include Miranda saying she "could have won a gold medal in rationalization," or when she jumps off a high platform and describes it as falling "a million miles an hour." These exaggerated statements help emphasize the characters' emotions and add humor to the story.
A hyperbole is a statement of extreme exaggeration to show emphasis.
