In the book To Kill A Mockingbird there are many different characters. And they are all very important. Since I had a lot of characters to choose from, it took a long time to decide who to write on. So after a lot of debating, I decided to write about Scout. She is my favorite character in the book.
             Scout is very different from most girls. She is more of a tomboy. She doesn't like to do the same things as most girls her age. She is the kind of girl who would rather play with boys than girls. She doesn't have any girl friends to speak of. She always plays with Jem and Dill. Even when they say it's not for girls, she still wants to play.
             Not only is she different, she is also very smart. Especially for her age. At the age of six she can already read and write. Her dad never really taught her to either; she just kind of picked it up from watching him. She has been able to read since before she could remember. Even though she can read and write, she is only smart in some ways. For example, she isn't very smart when it comes to fighting. She didn't realize that she shouldn't fight. She always gets into fights with people, "This time, I split my knuckle to the bone on his front teeth" (84). But throughout the book she even got smarter in this area. Like when Cecil Jacobs made her mad she almost punched him, but then she remembered that Atticus asked her not to fight with anyone. So then she just walked away and risked being made fun of.
             Our of all of the people in this book, there are probably three people that mean more than anything in the world to Scout. The most important out of all three is Atticus. She respects him the most out of anybody. Whenever she doesn't know what something is, or she doesn't understand something, she usually asks Atticus. He is the best person in her eyes.
             The next most important person to her is Jem. He is very supportive to...
