To Kill a Mockingbird
Harper Lee This story is being told from Scouts point of view about her life style. It starts off by saying that its summer time and Scout, Jem, and Dill are together and they talk about the scary house and the scary man “Boo Radley.” It is already fall and Dill leaves. The time has come for Scout to start school. The Radley’s house, also know as the scary house, is in between the Finches house and Scouts school, which usually means that she runs past as fast as she can.

During school, Scout gets into an altercation with Francis Cunningham because of the fact that Scout and Jem’s father, Atticus, the lawyer, was defending Tom Robinson. Tom Robinson, the African-American, is being accused of raping Mayella, Mr. Ewell’s daughter. It is now Christmas, and Jem and Scout get their dream gift, a pair of air rifles. Atticus doesn’t want to teach them how to shoot, but if they must shoot at birds, they shouldn’t harm any of the mockingbirds. Jem and Scout saw this insane dog heading their way and called into the house to Calpurnia, the housekeeper. Calpurnia called Atticus to come home. Atticus then comes home and is told by the gentleman he is with to shoot the dog. The next day was Tom Robinson’s trial and Atticus knew he had to get through the trial strong. Mr. Ewell was called up at the stand for the questions. Atticus proceeds to ask Mr. Ewell questions about what had happened to his daughter. Mr. Ewell was answering every question sarcastically and was trying to blame Mr. Robinson for what happened to Mayella. Mr. Ewell then stepped down from the stand. Miss. Mayella is then called up to the stand for a brief description on what happened that night to her. She tried to blame everything on Mr. Robinson when she really knew that it was Mr. Ewell from the start. She started to get jittery and the way she was presenting herself was as a delinquent. Atticus knew that it wasn’t
