Atticus tells Scout very little about the Radley house, as he wants to respect the privacy of the reclusive Radley family. He also wishes to instill in Scout a sense of empathy and understanding for others' perspectives. Atticus encourages Scout to be compassionate and respectful towards Boo Radley and his family.
Atticus visits the Radley house to pay his respects upon the death of Mrs. Radley. Scout and Jem suspect that Boo caused her death and are eager to prove their theory. They are disappointed to learn from Atticus that she died of natural causes. Then Scout asks Atticus if he "saw Mr. Arthur." Atticus sternly replies, "I did not." That is all she hears about it.

They performed what they called 'plays' in their front yard. Similar to the way children now would play house, they chose parts and acted out a scene. When Dill came one of their favorites to act out was the story of Mr. Arthur "Boo" Radley.
He doesn't want Atticus to return the blanket because he realizes that Boo cares about them and he is trying to be nice. Boo also hasn't been seen in a while and people seeing him could upset him.
they are in his back garden trying to peep in through the windows to get a look at Boo radley
She was calm at the beginning. However when Mr. Avery was stuck on the second floor of Miss Maudie's house while rescuing her furniture, she was afraid and "..buried [her] head under Jem's arm and didn't look again…" This shows that Scout does not care that much about the house. However, when she thought Mr. Avery was in danger, she got scared.
Atticus brings Jem and Scout to his sister Alexandra's house. They have always went there for Christmas to spend time with the whole family. Uncle Jack, Aunt Alexandra, Uncle Jimmy and Francis. They are all much different than Scout and Jem because they are very boring and they do not like to play. Unlike Scout and Jem who are up for anything exciting.
Jem, Scout, and Dill go to the Radley house and are scared away when they think Boo is chasing them. While going under the fence Jem's pants get caught and are pulled off. He refuses to go home without them so he tells the others to run ahead and he returns to retrieve them. When he gets there, much to his surprise, his pants are folded neatly over the fence.
She is commonly harassed by many of the female figures for being a tomboy. She has trouble in school because she can already read and write when she starts first grade. She was terrified of Boo, but once she actually saw him, she realized he was harmless. She learns the true value of getting to know someone before "judging them."
Similarities- They're both neighbours and they tend to talk to each other about many things. Differences- Miss Maudie likes Jem and Scout, whereas Mr. Avery doesn't communicate with them all that much.
The mysterious neighbor in "To Kill a Mockingbird" is Arthur "Boo" Radley. He is a recluse who rarely leaves his house, leading to much speculation and curiosity from the children in the neighborhood, particularly Scout and Jem Finch. Boo ultimately plays a significant role in the novel's climax.
Walter pours syrup on his food because he doesn't have much at home and enjoys the taste. Atticus gets upset with Scout for pointing out Walter's actions because it is impolite to criticize someone's behavior, especially when it is related to their social or economic background. Atticus wants Scout to understand the importance of empathy and kindness towards others.
