TKMB Part 2 Alexis
This section started off really boring to me. Hints why I barely finished reading it. Toward the end of the chapter the plot started to intensify. I really enjoyed learning more about Atticus and the case. Thus far it seems like the typical black vs. white case. For Atticus to represent Tom wholeheartedly shows a lot about his character. He cares about the greater good of humanity not just what his townspeople think about him. I absolutely enjoyed Scout's curiosity. Her innocent questions highlighted the wrongs in humanity. I really appreciate the fact that Cal and Atticus actually try to give her straightforward answers. I guess they assume that she gets enough crap from other people pertaining to the case that Scout deserves at least one honest response. During this section I started to view Jem and Scout as kids with guidance. Before it seemed like they just ran wild. I'm looking forward to her to reading more about he case and Scout's reaction to everything.

I agree that the kids have good guidance. The kids have had guidance not just from Atticus and Calpurnia, but even some minor characters as well. Remember the school teacher that Scout didn't get along with? Although she actually was a teacher, she taught Scout that people think and just live differently from each other, which is okay. I do think that Scout and Jem were both guided in a positive direction!
