Tall tale

A tall tale is a big story that people tell that’s not really true. It’s like they’re making a joke or teasing you in a funny way. When someone tells a tall tale, they exaggerate or make things way bigger or crazier than they really are. It’s kind of like playing a game of “telephone” where one person tells a story, then the next person adds to it, and it gets bigger and bigger each time. So, when you hear a tall tale, it’s important to remember that it’s not really true, but it can still be fun to pretend it is!
