Journal Entries To Kill A Mockingbird Book Report
Scout's first day at school -- Scout, Miss Caroline, Walter Cunningham, Burris Ewell, Chuck Little
Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing.
To Kill a Mockingbird
Scout, Chapter 2.
Dear Diary,
Damn I hate school! T o be honest “I never looked forward more to anything in my life” (Lee 15), but everything went wrong. My teacher is Ms. Caroline Fisher.

When we were eating Walter drowned his food in syrup. “I … asked what the sam hill he was doing.” (Lee 24). Atticus shook his head and Calpurnia called me to the kitchen. “She was furious, and when she was furious Calpurnia’s grammar became erratic.” (Lee 24). She gave me a lesson about what tolerance was but I’m still kinda
