Dear Aunt Bessie‚ Thank you forgiving me the chance to spend a good amount of money on the things that matter in America. Although some people may think this an easy task‚ I would like to let them know that it was quite difficult. However‚ after a long time of thinking‚ I have decided that women’s suffrage‚ child labor‚ and deforestation are the problems that need to be helped the most.

In the book‚ Aunt Alexandra and Calpurnia are characters that could serve as motherly figures to Scout. In my opinion‚ Calpurnia acts as a better mother for the children.

Another example is when Scout was feeling

The revolution continued by the women she influenced. Her life consisted of breaking boundaries set for women at her
