Journal #2
Chapters 4-7
Perspective: scout

its summer again and i feel that this is a good, hot, and boring summer day. when i went home i saw something shiny in the oak tree being a girl i had to grab it. it was gum. i sniffed and licked it to see if it wasn't poisoned or anything. when Jem got home he asked where i got it. i said from the Radly house. he then made me spit it out. i came up with the idea of rolling in a tire jem pushed me really hard because i argued with him about "hot steams" when the tire stopped and i popped out i found myself in front of the Radly house. i was scared out of my wits. i was sure that Boo was laughing in the house. then Jem yelled at me for becoming a lady. then we came up with a game called the Boo Radly game. in it we reenact the scenes that we know or came up with. everything was going fine until Atticus caught them.

Jem and Dill have grown closer so i need a friend i chose Mrs. Maudie as my friend. she had a lot of info on Boo. she said that he was very polite.but he might have gotten insane from being alone. i disagreed when Jem and Dill tryed to get him out.

Chapters 1-3
Perspective of Jem

when i was born our maid and cook Calpurnia joined our family. later in my life i saw a boy and he told us to call him dill. he wanted to be our freinds but we didnt want to be until he told us about the dracula movie he saw. we have been best freinds since.the thing about Boo Radly is that all of the storys about him are bad like when Boo stabbed his father in the leg. the scary part of that summer was when i was dared to touch the Boo Radly house. i walked there slowly but i panicked and ran like all of the nightmares of my life were chasing me. i slapped the side of the house and ran back again. when i got at the front gate my heart was pounding out of my chest.

the end of summer

we are back in school it's scouts first day of school but i don't want her to ruin my reputation. during lunch i saw scout beating up Walter Cunningham. i pulled her off and invited Walter for lunch. i told scout that she should behave and not beat up walter anymore she didnt want to but she did it anyways

perspective: Mrs. Dubose chapter: 10-12


I was sitting on my porch when the ungratful kids of atticus came adjacent to each other and the girl said "hey mrs. dubose." i yelled at her saying that she should say good morning mrs. dubose. then she tried to give me a debate about how lady like she has to be. i got her brother really mad by saying that their father is a nigger- lover. i feel that that stament was ingenuous. when i saw my garden again all of the flowers on top were chopped off and there was a dirty snapped baton in the middle. i was horrified. i made him read to me for a month after his school at the beginning of each read they tried to isolate me by staying away but i brought them closer. i couldn't hear him most of the time because i was having one of my fits. so i had to entrust to Jessie so they don't escape the more he reads the better i feel so i kept him a little longer everyday. by the end of the month i had broken my addiction and have finished my life. but it took so much out of me that i died in front of Atticus meanwhile he said that i was so brave.
