Jem was twelve. He was difficult to live with, inconsistent,moody. His appetite was appaling, and he told me so many times to stop pestering him I consulted Atticus:
In this passage the main character SCout is telling us what's going on with her brother Jem through her eyes. NO one else is narrating the story just Scout. SHe uses the words difficult to live with, inconsistent, and moody. NO one else in the story could say it like her, because it is coming from her point of view.
Being that she lives with him she can say that he goes through all different moods at the same time. She knows. This is a significant passage because we see that Jem is growing. As Jem is growing so is Scout, and she is narrating the book at many different ages.
