To Kill A Mocking Bird- Full grade 9 BR

A detailed Summary of To Kill A Mocking Bird- Full grade 9 BR

Harper Lee choose the setting as an imaginary (May comb) county in Alabama during the 1930's.

She set the story during this time because it was a time of social turbulence, and a time when

Americans began to start thinking about more modern social issues. This was the perfect setting in which to create a theme that illustrates the injustices of prejudice, intolerance, and quick judgments of others.

Harper Lee chose to tell the book from the eyes of Scout, because Scout's innocence and young

age allow her to have a pure, untainted view on any event that takes place. In general, Scout

observes, but has no preconception of the events that develop. For a child, it is easier to see the shades of gray of someone's character. A child cannot see someone's

age or gender etc... as a cause for their problems or shortcomings.

The first character to be judged swiftly and wrongly is the Finch's neighbor Boo Radley. Boo is

introduced as a hermit that lives shut up in his house, completely isolated from the outside world.

Dill, Jem, and Scout spend most of their free time either ridiculing Boo or trying to lure him out of his house. By using the children's innocent fear of the

initiates the first expeditions toward the Radley house, and is Scout and Jem's best

will have a way to explain his behavior.
