I recently read To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.

To Kill a Mockingbird is told through the eyes of the young Jean-Louise "Scout" Finch. S

he grew up in the small town Maycomb,Alabama. She,her brother Jem and their friend,Dill were fascinated by Boo Radley,an old recluse that lived in a dark house in their neighborhood.The children always dared each other to go to go to the house and ring the doorbell.One time,Jem caught a glimpse of him!They all left horrified! Later,the children found random goodies stuck in the hallow of a tree which Boo left for them.

Later,while at school Scout was at school,she got called a dirty name.Everyone was harsh saying in a rude way she loved black paper. Later,she asked her father why the

y said that .He told her when people would say that,to remain calm and not retaliate.He told her that he was defending a black man in court,(which was socialy unacceptable.But despite everyone looking down upon him,he still

stood by his convictions.After many tiresome days and nights,Tom Robinson,pleaded guilty.

Atticus took this loss very hard.Then,a heartbreaking event happened.While trying to escape from prison he was shot multiple times.Atticus was outraged

by the injustice of the court system and how it was run.

Where do I begin?

First off, I love how this story is told through the eyes of a young child.That seemed to put a lot more innocence into it.They were put through a lot of hard trials and they,for the most part handled it with much maturity.You can relate to children because we all were children at on point in our lives.

Secondly,I love the character Atticus Finch.He seems to be very calm and posed throughout the whole book.He was a great example to his children,as well as all the people in his town.I also liked how no matter what people would say or do,he would still not back down from what was right.

I think this is one of the best fictional books ever written. We as humans can learn a lot from it! this is on my top 5 favorites list for sure!
