To Kill a Mockingbird

Boo Radley put the blanket around Scout as a generous gesture to say he was nice, and also to keep them from getting cold, standing outside at night, far away from the blazing fire of Miss Maudie's home.

Tom Robinson- because the racism of the people of Maycomb killed his kindness and hope

Arthur 'Boo' Radley- because his father's strict manners took away the youth years in his life, he was kind of like a mockingbird in captivity. If he was to go to the outside world as a grown man he wouldn't be able to defend himself.

Jeremy 'Jem' Finch- Because his beliefs and sense of justice were shaken by the existing racism in Maycomb county

You can find extra cylinders for a Titan Buffalo Scout handgun at gun shops, online firearm retailers, or directly from the manufacturer's website if they offer spare parts for sale.

The church members sing by echoing the words of Zeebo. There are no hymn books because they cannot afford them and few members can read. They take up offerings for community members such as Helen, who cannot find work and for her husband who has been accused of rape.

Miss Maudie always used to bake three little cakes for the children. In this part of the novel, she lets Jem have a slice of the big cake to show that he is now older and more mature. This supports the theme of growing up.

They say her flowers and her are going to Hell, because she spends too much time outside.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

They are disgusted at the fact that Miss Maudie does not act in the way a Foot washing baptist lady should -- their image is of her wearing a dress, indoors, reading the bible. Instead, Miss Maudie wears overalls and goes outdoors to grow flowers. Therefore, they remark quite rudely that she and her flowers are "going to Hell". One particular footwashing baptist went so far as to imply to Miss Maudie that she was being very vain by utilizing God's outdoors so much and spending so little time reading the bible that she would, after death, "departeth in darkness" or "go to Hell". When Miss Maudie cleverly gave another part of the scripture to rebuke this comment ("A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance") the woman was shocked that Miss Maudie knew so much of the scripture, and had also embarassed her by implying that her heart was dark, so she departed in haste. The footwashing baptists underestimate Miss Maudie's command of the scripture because of the image she showcases to them, and Miss Maudie too knows that she will never be able to change the ways they interpret the bible- literally, which she believes is wrong, so she remains ostricized from their community and they both have equal disapproval for each other.

Scout responds by questioning this explanation and expressing confusion over why skin color should matter in determining a person's identity. This moment highlights Scout's innocence and Atticus's attempt to educate her about the racial prejudices ingrained in society.

Jem and Scout find small gifts left in the knothole of the tree near the Radley house, including two small figures carved out of soap, a broken pocket watch, and a spelling bee medal. These gifts are likely left by Boo Radley as gestures of goodwill towards the children.
