It is a Sin Not to Read This Book

It is a sin to kill a mockingbird...

I have changed the order of the books and have inserted To Kill A Mockingbird before Redwall. After Redwall we will read as many Brian Jacques books as I can get my hands on in memory of an amazing author-One of the greatest.

I have begun journeying through the town of Maycomb Alabama, and I have contracted an unavoidable disease: the giggles. Harper Lee has Scout tell her story in a way that leaves me breathless! Oh, to be an author like that!

Here is a list of the major characters to get you started.

Scout: she is the narrator.
Jem: Scout's brother.
Atticus: Jem and Scout's father and the town's lawyer. He is also on the State legislature.
Dill: Jem and Scout's summer playmate.
Boo Radley: A mysterious character which everyone seems to know something about, but we haven't actually seen him yet. :)
Miss Maudie: One of Scout's neighbors.


I think that's enough to get you started!
