Describe The Kid's Relationship With Boo Radley
This song represents the kid’s relationship with Boo Radley because he has been watching them for a couple of years and has developed strong feelings for them, almost like a brother. The song is called “Little Do You Know” and I think it describes their relationship because it is sort of like little do you know that Boo is actually watching over the kids. One part of the song says “little do you know how I’m breaking while you fall asleep.” To me those lyrics would be coming from Boo to the kids, because he is misunderstood and sad about it. Boo wants to go out and see the kids but he is so shy so he can’t see them, so he stays inside sad- breaking while they fall asleep.

    From the first chapter, Lee creates mystery with Boo. She doesn’t explicitly introduce him as a main character. She uses the words and actions of others to build interest in Boo and creates a setting for Jem to see him as a human being instead of a “malevolent phantom”.…

    In another aspect of his childlike innocence, Lennie is comparable to Boo Radley; both are frustrated in their lives, limited by their capabilities. In Chapter 29 of Lee's novel, Sheriff Tate speaks to Atticus of Boo's "shy ways," personal idiosyncrasies that parallel those of Lennie Small who is also childlike. The beginning of that summer boded well: Jem could do as he pleased; Calpurnia would do until Dill came. She seemed glad to see me when I appeared in the kitchen, and by watching her I began to think there was some skill involved in being a girl.…

    Boo Radley Hero

    Many assert that Atticus Finch is the hero in the novel, “To Kill a Mockingbird,” by, “Harper Lee,” but I respectfully disagree with that and believe the true hero is Boo Radley. Throughout the book, “To Kill a Mockingbird,” Boo Radley was secretive and reticent, although, he had multiple encounters of being heroic. Boo Radley additionally, is somebody portrayed as a mad man. Scout, Jem, and Dill was told that Boo (allegedly), defiantly stuck scissors into the leg of his repressive father. When the children heard about that, they reluctantly tried to find out more information about Boo. By the end of the novel, “To Kill a Mockingbird,” Boo is distinguished more as a hero to the children, rather than a shadow of a dreadful person. I conceive…

    Judgemental. Realization. Acceptance. These are three important factors which caused Scout to change her outlook on the world. She goes from judging Boo Radley, to realising he was not what everyone thought. Then she began to understand she should not base her thoughts on someone purely off what others have told her. In Harper Lee’s, To Kill A Mockingbird, the moment which had the greatest effect on Scout’s life is when she realized Boo Radley saved her life, because she understood judging Boo before she met him was the incorrect thing to do.…

    I believe in judging someone by their actions and character rather than by the color of their skin and sexuality. This I believe because there is good and bad in all of us. The color of our skin does not depict the flaws we have. In the second amendment it states that all men are created equal, but we still do not treat each other equally. Defending Tom Robinson was not easy because I knew that from the minute Mayella opened her mouth Tom was a dead man. But everyone including a black man deserves a second chance. How could I ever tell my own children “You never really understand a person until you consider things from their point of view - until you climb into his skin and walk around in it” if I didn’t pick up Tom’s case because I was afraid of what people would think of me. When people say things about me like “Atticus Finch is the same in his house as he is on the public streets” why would I prove them wrong? You are only as good as you portray yourself to be. But when you are a black man in the town of Maycomb, Alabama you were never dealt the good hand to begin with. Sadly Tom never got a second chance. Tom was a good man but because of the color of his skin he was not treated as fairly as the rest of us.…

    Authors often have a very good reason for choosing a particular personality for their story’s narrator. Scout was a vital character in the novel, “To Kill a Mockingbird.” Her impartial outlook on life and people was highly voluntary in order to produce the theme and message that Harper Lee was sending to her readers. Many of the events in the story would not have happened or would have occurred very differently if the novel was told through the eyes of an adult narrator. Even though Scout’s narration is often faulty or inaccurate, her innocence often allows readers to see the events and characters in the novel more clearly.…

    Harper Lee believes that younger kids, especially those not yet through primary school, have very different instinct compared to adults. They do not have the maturity to come up with multiple ways of handling situations, and often will not take the time to think about their actions before they go through with them. Children outgrow this as they mature, but it is something that takes many years, and depends thoroughly on the child. While this should be quite obvious, many times adults, younger and older, do not remember this. Throughout “To Kill a Mockingbird” Harper Lee utilizes young character’s words and actions to show that children's instincts are different than adults’ and mature as they age.…
