Jean Louise "Scout" Finch and her brother, Jem, live with their widowed lawyer father, Atticus, in the Alabama town of Maycomb. One summer, they befriend a boy named Dill, and the trio acts out stories together. Eventually, Dill becomes fascinated with the spooky house on their street called the Radley Place, owned by Mr. Nathan Radley, whose brother Arthur "Boo" Radley has lived there for years without ever leaving the house.

Scout goes to school for the first time that fall, and detests it. She and Jem find gifts, apparently left for them, in a knot-hole of a tree on the Radley property. That summer Dill returns, and they begin to act out the story of Boo Radley. Atticus puts a stop to their antics, but

on the last day of summer, the three sneak onto the Radley property and are shot at by Mr. Nathan Radley. Jem loses his pants in his escape, and when he returns for them, he finds them mended and hung over the fence. The next winter, they find more presents in the tree, but eventually Nathan Radley plugs the hole with cement. Shortly thereafter, there is a fire in their neighbor's house, and during the fire someone slips a blanket on Scout's shoulders as she watches the blaze. Jem is convinced that Boo did it, and tells Atticus about the mended pants and the presents.
