In Jem Finch's Shoes

My name is Jem and I'm wearing Retro 3's. I'm usually in a good mood unless Scout comes around and starts annoying me. My little sister usually doesn't get on my nerves but sometimes she can really push my buttons. I love my life and who I am today. I'm growing up now so my life is really starting to change. I'm starting to like girls and I'm starting to act more and more like my father. I don't really like my Aunt Alexandra because she thinks she is my mother or something and she is not. I hate how she always tells Scout what to do and always gets in an arguement with her. She can be very judgemental as well. I try to look at people and think that evryone is equal.

Maycomb County, Alabama- After talking to Atticus Finch, a father to two kids, we found out some very interesting information about him and his personal life. When we heard all the talk going around town about him defending a Negroe, we just had to interview him. We tried asking him a few questions about the Tom Robinson case but when we asked, Atticus said, “I’m sorry, but I can not talk about this subject.” Atticus was very jumpy when we asked about his case so we backed off and didn’t ask him anything else.

The Radley House

At the end of chapter one, Dill dares Jem to go and touch the Radley house. At first Jem is confused on rather or not he wants to go touch the house. Dill keeps pressuring Jem,trying to get him to do it. Jem has never turned down a dare so thats even more pressure on him to do it. In the end Jem runs up to the house and slaps it and then runs as fast as he can down the street with Dill and Scout chasing behind. Boo Radley didn't come out of the house and chase them to their surprise.

This picture relates to the book because it is supposed to be the Radley's house. The picture is a scary,run-down house just like the one descirbed in the book.
