Answer:

“I tried to climb into Jem's skin and walk around in it” (57). For example, when Scout says “I tried to climb into Jem's skin and walk around in it,” (57) she didn't literally try to get into his skin. She was just trying to understand how he felt, by looking at his problems through his eyes.
