Mockingbirds



The book is titled "To Kill A Mockingbird" because many reasons. One of the most important reasons is that Aticus said that the kids should never kill a mockingbird because they do not to anything to others that conflicts pain or harm. He gave the kids guns to shoot birds, cans, and things like that. He said the only thing they had to look out for was mockingbirds. He said that all they did was live in peace and make beautiful music with the talents they were gifted with.

Another reason why the book is called " TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD" is because some of the characters in the book are just like mockingbirds. They do not do anything that hurts anything or anybody or does anything bad. They just kick back and be like a mockingbird. These characters are Boo Radly, Aticus, and Tom Robenson. Boo is like a mockingbird because he doesn't do anything that is bad to others or to other's belongings. Everyone thinks that he is weird and that he has not been outside his whole life. Others think that he is just shy and doesn't like to be around other people. He is really pail and is just a peaceful person. He didn't do anything wrong and I don't think he ever will. Aticus is like a mockingbird because he is a peaceful person too. He use to be a really cool guy that did risky stuff when he was younger. He is now an old guy that just kicks back and doesn't shoot mockingbirds. He is one of the old guys that are really lame and stuff but cool at the same time because he is so lame. In the book when he shot the dog, you could tell that he was a little scared to kill that dog. He knew it was the right thing. He is sort of like my grandma Luckinbill. She is a lady that is open to everything and likes everything in life. She doesn't do anything bad. She even comments on the graffiti on trains that pass her work. She says, "Isn't that so beautiful. I sometimes just come out here and look at all of the amazing artwork those young boys spray paint on those trains. I think they should be real artists. They would make a lot of money." Tom is like a mockingbird because he doesn't do anything to hurt any
