In “To Kill a Mockingbird”, the story follows the childhood of a girl that lives in the 1930’s.

    These two stories are similar, yet very different. Emmett Till, a true story about a young black boy who was killed after visiting his relatives.

    To Kill A Mockingbird has a novel and a film. The novel may have many similarities to the film, the film might be a little different, but this is what they share in similarities. In the novel and the film they both have Scout as the narrator, and it is being told from Scout’s point of view. When Atticus shot the mad dog, that was in the novel as well as the film. In the novel Boo Radley left gifts in the hole in the tree, and when his brother found out, he filled the hole with cement. In the film there was a visual of what the gifts from Boo Radley looked like, and how his brother filled the hole with cement. The themes were similar, the theme of racism, family, and maturing was given in…

    A great book is difficult to define. Some books contain endless action an exciting plot while others are more theological, but both make excellent reads. The Chosen by Chaim Potok, and Harper Lee’s novel To Kill a Mockingbird display this elegantly. Lee’s book starts with a trial and ends with a murder, but The Chosen, though less dramatic still possess the qualities of a great book. Both books deal with complex problems such as religion, race, justice, and friendship. In my opinion, The Chosen was a greater book because of its superior theme, plot, and connection between the reader and the characters.…

    The main difference between these two novels is that in To Kill a Mockingbird, the community let racial prejudice ruin a man’s life. Tom Robinson was found guilty and killed as his punishment, even though he was innocent. On the other hand, Kabou Miyamoto was found innocent and racial prejudice was pushed aside. Kabou was also innocent likewise to Tom, but Kabou had people sticking up for him unlike Tom. Tom’s only supporter was his lawyer and family; meanwhile, Kabou had the support of his lawyer along with his family, Ishmael, and the judge. As shown above, the theme of racial prejudice presented similarities and differences among the two…

    The death penalty relates to the book How to Kill a Mockingbird because it deals a lot with racism. Tom Robinson could’ve gotten the death penalty for the crime he was said to have done. He was accused of rape. Also he was a black man so he was unlikely to be found not guilty. In colonial times if you were African American you were more likely to be found guilty and accused of things you didn’t do. Now a day it just is based on the crime committed not your race.…

    The relationship between the book To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee, and the poem If by Rudyard Kipling is astonishingly similar. Although If was published nearly 140 years before the publishing of To Kill A Mockingbird, many readers have come to the conclusion that If was written based on To Kill A Mockingbird. However, when discovering the dates that each of the pieces were published, it is found that the bond between the two are just mere coincidences. Characters such as Atticus, Jem, and Calpurnia have various traits portrayed in the poem.…

    When you compare the two books they have a very similar tone. Though the locations different they still connect through the same tone. Phoenix Jackson is on a trail walking to town to buy some medicine for her Grandson, while Miss Emily is locked up in her house with a dead man. If you were to not focus as much on the location and put your attention to their state of mind then you can see that they are in the same atmosphere. The…
