Why did Atticus suggest that the children disguise their snowman?

Answer 1

For the first time in years, Maycomb endures a real winter. There is even light snowfall, an event rare enough

for school to be closed. Jem and Scout haul as much snow as they could from Miss Maudie’s yard to their own.

Since there is not enough snow to make a real snowman, they build a small figure out of dirt and cover it with

snow. They make it look like Mr. Avery, an unpleasant man who lives down the street. The figure’s likeness to

Mr. Avery is so strong that Atticus demands that they disguise it. Jem places Miss Maudie’s sunhat on its head

and sticks her hedge clippers in its hands, much to her chagrin.

Answer 2

Atticus suggested that the children disguise their snowman to protect Boo Radley from unwanted attention or harm. He wanted to maintain Boo's privacy and prevent him from becoming the focus of neighborhood gossip or speculation.

Answer 3

He was asked to change it because it looked like a hermaphrodite, spawning the word Morphodite from Scout misunderstanding

Answer 4

You could easily see that the snowman looked identical to one of their neighbors.

Answer 5

Atticus tells Jem and scout that they should not make it look like their neibor mr. Avery.

Answer 6

it looks like an old mean man he knows.
