To Kill A Moking Bird

A detailed Summary of To Kill A Moking Bird

Do Not Judge A Person Until You Get To Know Them “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point-of-view -until you climb into his skin and walk around in it,” these are the words spoken by Atticus Finch when giving advice to his little girl, Jean Louise, “Scout.” This theme, “do not judge a person before you get to know them,” is something most children, during this day and age, are taught when they are very young, and is the reoccurring theme in To Kill A Mocking Bird. The two clear examples of this theme are with Arthur “Boo” Radley and Tom Robinson. When the characters are first met, they are introduced as bad and maybe even evil people. However, when the characters start to develop, it can be noticed that they are actually good people. In To Kill A Mocking Bird, from the time Arthur “Boo” Radley was a small boy until the time he was a grown adult he was a very misunderstood character. When the children of Maycomb, like Jem and Scout, were young, people would tell horror stories about Boo. One of them was when Boo allegedly stabbed his father with scissors, but throughout the book, it was foreshadowed that Boo really was not a ba

Then, when Miss Maudie’s house caught on fire, Scout was standing outside watching, and Boo put a blanket around her shoulders, so she would not get cold. Finally, Boo kept giving Jem and Scout “gifts.” “Neighbors bring food with death and flowers with sickness and little things in between. Boo was our neighbor. He gave us two soap dolls, a broken watch and chain, a pair of good-luck pennies, and our lives.” The greatest thing Boo Radley did, that definitely made him a good person was he saved Jem’s and Scout’s lives from a crazy Bob Ewell. To both Finch children, Boo was a very scary person at first, but in the end, he was a kind and caring person. “I don’t know, but they did it. They’ve done it before and they did it tonight and they’ll do it again and when they do it-seems that only children weep. Good night,” declared Atticus about Tom Robinson’s verdict. Tom Robinson was a character who was found guilty of raping a white women. In the South there was a hierarchy, based on name and race, like a caste system. Tom Robinson was at the very b
