Quote of the day: ” Home sweet home is safe for me”

        Last night sure was cold. I kept every fireplace in Mr. Finch’s house blazing hot but it was still freezing cold. I decided that it would be warmer to go home because Mr. Finch’s high ceilings and long windows. My home may be smaller but at least it keeps all the warmth in and all the cold out. When I came to Mr. Finch's house this morning, I saw that Miss Maudie’s house wasn’t there. There were only ashes left and a f...

Quote of the day: “ Innocent until proven guilty”

        Atticus is defending Tom Robinson in court even though everyone in town thinks Atticus is a disgrace for defending a black man. I know Tom Robinson from church. He is a nice man with a nice family. They are nice clean-living folk so I believe that Atticus should defend Tom no matter what anyone else says. Atticus is going to defend Tom because he wouldn’t be able to show his face to his children if he turned down this case. I�...

Quote of the day: “Don’t forget your pants!”

        Yesterday me and Dill were playing outside eyeing the Radley house. I told Dill that I wasn’t gonna let Atticus decide whether or not we can see Boo Radley. We came to a conclusion that we were gonna be brave and sneak a peek at Boo Radley through the loose shutter in the window. That’s when Scout came and acted like a girl. She’s turning into Atticus more and more each day, I tell you! When I told her she was turning into a...

Quote of the day: “You never know what you can find up a tree!”

        Yesterday when Scout and I were walking back from school in the afternoon we passed the tree. When I say “the tree” I mean that tree close to the Radley house that contains items in its tree hole. Remember that one day we found chewing gum? Well this time guess what we found! Soap carvings!

He asked what this medal was for and I told him that it was a medal that was won in my days when spelling bees were held at schools, but that was years ago. I wondered were he had found it and I told him someone must ...

I was shaving at the time and when I heard that scream I bolted to her room. I was greeted by Scout saying, “The world’s enddin’ Atticus! Please do something!” She pulled me to the window and I found myself awed...
