The "Boo Radley" game


In the book To Kill a Mockingbird Jem and Scouts' Boo Radley game seems like something my friends and I would have played when we were younger. We would always sneek into the new houses being built and go places we probably shouldnt have just for the thrill of it all. We new if we got caught we would not be in that big of trouble; but we would pretend like we would get in HUGE trouble if we did get caught!
If I were Scout, and I found gum in a keyhole I definately would not eat it. I am a very cautiouse person(i get that from my mom). Maybe if Scout had had a Mother figure she would not have eaten the gum either. However, I have a fealing that Scout is her own person and would still eat the gum anyway.

I did the same thing when I was young. I loved doing things that I wasn't really supposed to be doing. That was the exciting part of it.

I think that if Scout had a mother, she would be a completely different person, from her looks to her personality! Sometimes I think its good that she's so different from everyone though, because that's what makes Scout, well Scout!

I did the same thing!!Knowing you were going to get in trouble just made you want to do it more.It is like when you tell a kid for instience to get off the top of the monkey bars and the kid just climbs higher.
