Chapter 1: This is the first chapter, the introductory chapter, the pilot. It features the main characters, such as Jem, the narrator's brother, Dill, who got Boo Radley out, and Atticus Finch, Jem's father. However, it does not introduce the narrator, who is called Jean Louise, but often called Scout. Atticus appears to be an educated criminal lawyer, based on the fact that his clients have been found guilty of murder. John Hale Finch studied medicine. They all lived in a little place called Maycomb County. The narrator's mother is dead and Scout, the narrator, has no memory of her. They found a boy named Charles Baker Harris, Dill. Boo was a troubled child whose parents spoiled him. The boys dare each other to go to the Radley house and touch her. Chapter 2: Dill leaves and school begins. Jem drove Scout to school. There was a new first grade teacher, Miss Caroline Fisher, a young teacher just out of college. She was irritated that Scout had learned the alphabet, because Miss Fisher wanted to teach it to her from scratch, and now "it would interfere with her reading." Later, he asks who is having lunch and who is going to town. She offers Walter money, but he refuses because he knows he can't repay her. Miss Caroline hit Scout with a ruler, "frustration" her and sending everyone into a storm of laughter. This disturbed the sixth grade. Chapter 3: Jem invites Walter to their house for lunch, promising that Scout won't attack him again. They go to their house, where Walter pours every drop of syrup onto his food. Scout scolds him for his bad manners, which Calpurnia scolds her for, since not everyone can eat like them. At school, Miss Caroline screamed at the sight of a live mouse. It belonged to a strange character Sco...... middle of paper ......g. Mr. Radley apparently "shot a nigger" and was waiting for anything so he could shoot again. Atticus asks where Jem's pants were, but Dill says they were playing strip poker and he won them. This surprised Atticus, who did not like gambling. At night, Jem goes to get his pants. Chapter 7: Jim had his period for a while longer. Second grade was similar to first, but worse. You weren't allowed to read or write, and they kept showing the cards. Jem talks to Scout. The night he came to pick him up, his trousers were neatly folded and had been sewn together. Jem said the school would improve during the sixth grade. He was learning about Egyptians and walking like one. Later, they saw something in the same tree where they found the gum. There were two beautifully sculpted figures, made out of soap. Jem looks at them and says they're great.
