TKAM late 12/15

Pages read:Finished
Prompt: The personalties of the characters and how some change throughout the book


      Scout is the first character that I want to talk about. She is a very curious girl like most other little kids. She wants to think that the world is perfect she tries to find the best in pretty much everything. I think she gets this attitude from her father like her father she looks at everyone equally it dose not  matter if they are white, black, old, young she will look at you the same. She also as lots of respect for her dad. I say this because in the beginning of the book she would get into fights and got into trouble but when Atticus started telling her to stop she was able to control herself and not fight at all. Throughout the book her personality changed also like in the beginning of the book she felt like it was her responsibility to defend her dad and brother but near the end of the book she started to realize that they could take care of them selves which shows a great change in maturity and personality.

     Jem in the beginning of the book was like Scouts best friends but as the book continues on Jem starts growing up and mutchering at a much faster pace then Scout is able to and he starts leaving scout behind.  This is an example of Jem becoming a young man and leaving he childhood behind him. Jem also in the beginning of the book used to obey really everything Atticus told him to do but as the book continued he started to ask more questions and started disobeying Atticus because this is the stage were Jem is starting to think more like an adult and starts believing in what he wants to believe.  Like scout Jem goes through lots of mental changes throughout the book.

     Atticus is a very brave man he speeches his mind even when he knows that it could end up bad for him. Atticus is also a very loving father and takes very good care of Scout and Jem. He teaches them discipline and also the most important morals that they will probably ever learn from there father. In the begining of the book Atticus was like an everyday person but as the book progressed he became more of a symbol or hope and bravery to not only to his kids but to other people in the community and also the reader.
