To Kill A Mockingbird, pg. 43-66

Summary:
The fourth chapter starts out with Scout taking about how she hates school and is just waiting for the summer. On her way home from school one day, she found two pieces of gum in a tree on the Radley property. Jem got mad and made her spit it out.

Summer was here and so was Dill, but a couple days before he got there, Scout found some pennies in the tree on the Radley property. Jem decided that when school starts they will ask around to find out if anyone lost the pennies. Then, Dill is there. They decided to roll in a tire. Scout went first and fell out in the Radley property. She ran back, and Calpurnia called them in for lemonade. While having lemonade, Jem decided that they were going to reenact Boo's life. As they were playing, Atticus asked "what they were doing?" Jem said nothing. Scout didn't want to play Boo's life anymore, but Jem told here to shut up. At the end of the chapter, Scout recalls hearing laughter as she ran off the Radley property.

The fifth chapter starts out  with Scout convincing Jem not to play the game anymore. Dill was disappointed. Dill liked Scout and vice versa.

Scout hunged out with Miss Maudie a lot. She hated her house and loved her garden. She was widowed. Scout asked her about Boo. She replied with he's name is Arthur. She said he was a nice man and that he enjoyed being inside. She mentions that he's a foot-washing Baptist. Scout asks if what people say is true. Miss Maudie said they were just dumb rumors.

The next day, Jem and Dill decide that they are giving Boo a letter persuading him to come out and hang out with them. Dill and Scout were on watch as Jem tried to stick the letter in a window. Atticus catches them. He yells at the kids.

Response:
I think this section was okay. I was surprised that Atticus yelled at the kids because he seems like the one who sits down his kids and explains why it's wrong. I really enjoyed the section with Miss Maudie. I like her personality. I think Dill and Scout would make a good couple. I know they are just kids, but the way they act with one another... I don't know.
