Chapter 31
In the last chapter in "To Kill a Mockingbird", starts with Boo Raudly leaving and saying goodbye to Boo. She mentions a serious of events through out the book that happened and that Boo Raudly must have seen everything that had happened. She remembers what Atticuss lesson on how you don't know that person till you walk in their shoes. Atticuss stays by Jem's bed and grabs a book called the Gray ghost and the story seems to be a lot like Boo Raudly. Boo Raudly always seemed like a bad guy that no one ever saw but he turned out to be really nice. It ends with a nice image of Atticuss by his son's side in cause he wakes up. It also shows how family is a big deal and the right from wrong takes place. Atticuss never gave up on what he believed was the right thing to do. Scout is still immature but a little less immature towards the end of the novel. The biggest problem here is racism and how people would chose wrong from right based on the color of their skin. I really like the way it ended I felt like I also learned the lessons Scout actually now understood towards the end.
Chapters 29 & 30
In chapter 29 in "To Kill a Mockingbird", it starts off with Atticuss asking Scout to tell him what had happened. She explains how they heard noises and how Bob grabbed her but she felt someone grab him down. She started to look for Jem which was on the floor. They look at their injures and realize that her costume saved her life. Scout looks at Jem and describes how pale and delicate he looks. They now realize that it was Bob, he was drunk and they can't believe that he was willing to kill kids. Then they also find out that Boo Raudly saved them that night. Boo was the one who carried Jem home.
In chapter 30, it is a little confusing but it is basically about how killed or how did Bob die. What we do know that there are two knifes involved a kitchen knife and a blade. Boo Raudly is now uncovered and is there. The problem here is figuring that out they come to a solution saying that Bob fell on his knife. The truth is that Boo since he is so used to being in the dark ran out stabbed Bob and dragged Jem home. In this chapter we find out more about the title of the book. Where "To Kill a Mockingbird" is now a saying that Boo was a spared mockingbird. At the end you can also realize that Atticuss thanked Boo meaning that Atticuss knew that Boo had killed Bob to save his kids, but neither the sheriff nor Atticuss said anything to defend Boo and to clear Jem's name.

Chapters 27 & 28
In chapter 27 in "To Kill a Mockingbird", there were a few accidents going on in town and Bob still holds a grudge. He gets involved in some miss-haves. Then the kids have to attend a pageant at the high school where Scout was going to dress as a ham. Jem and Scout on their way to the school where they walk to everyday but the chapter ends with some foreshadowing with the line this might be the longest journey me and Jem might take.
In chapter 28, they are on their way and they pass by the Raudly house. They make it to the high school and they each go hang out with their friends and they ride some rides. Later they get called up to the pageant and Scout rips her costume and they help her out. The pageant is over and they get offered a ride but Jem passes since they only live around the corner. They start walking home but it is dark and they can't really see anything. They get into some trouble and Scout just remembers being thrown to the ground and it seemed there were a few men, which were drunk. Then they make out of all the rolling around scout sees a man pull Jem to the house and Jem is unconscious and Scout's costume is ruined. there is a lot of mystery of what happened the only thing we know is that Jem's elbow is twisted but they are both okay. They call the police so they can investigate the scene and they just find Bob dead with a knife in him. Since this was in Scout's point of view we don't know yet exactly what happened.

Chapters 25 & 26
In chapter 25 in "To Kill a Mockingbird", is a short chapter, it is basically about Atticuss and Carponia going to Tom's house. They go break the news to his wife and how she just falls to the floor as if someone stepped on her. They mention how the people who killed him simple forgot that he was an innocent man, who got taken from his family and wasn't given a second chance.
In chapter 26, it starts off with Scout being at school and they start to talk about Adolf Hitler and how they would learn more about it in high school. Scout feels uncomfortable about knowing how someone can hate someone that much. Then she realizes that her teacher hates Hitler for doing that to the Jews but yet is racist against black people. Scout thinks that is weird to think that way. Scout talks to Jem about that but he gets upset and kicks her out of his room, she walks away and goes to Atticuss. Atticuss tells her that he is having a hard time and that he needs to think over things but he will be back to himself.

Chapters 23 & 24
In chapter 23, "To Kill a Mockingbird", it starts of with Atticuss reaction to being spit on by Bob, they tell him that he should watch out and do something about it. Atticuss claims that a person like Bob just wanted to have the last word and he had nothing to worry about. Then Atticuss says that Tom still had a chance at his appeal and if not he would go to the chair. Jem didn't think it was fair for that to happen, Aticuss tells Jem that when he gets older he will understand and that he shouldn't worry.
In chapter 24, it starts off with Dill wanting to know how to swim before summer is over and Jem takes him out to teach him. Scout stays home and and gets dressed to attend a tea gathering with a group of white hypocritical people. They come from many churches and Scout starts to talk to some of the ladies. She listens to what they are saying and they are such Hippocrates. They claim to be christian but their racism and hippacracy are not what a christian really is. Scout says that the life of women is a lot more complicated then with being with men. Then Atticuss tells Carponia that Tom tried to escape and was shot 17 times. There we find out that Tom decided to take it into his own hands and they took it a little over board.
Chapters 21 & 22
In chapter 21, "To Kill a Mockingbird", its starts of with Carponia gives a letter to Atticuss saying that the kids haven't been seen but they realize they have been seating in the colored area. They are sent home to eat and Atticuss lets them come back to see if Atticuss has won the trail. When they come back they find out that nothing has changed and they are glad that they haven't missed a thing. The jury has been out for about three hours now and Jem is happy that its taking so long but Scout is not. The jury comes back and everyone claims that Tom is guilty. Atticuss gets tense every time they say guilty but realize that they took a long time to decide that. They took a tribute to Atticuss since he tried his best to defend Tom Robinson. We can realize that racism does change things in these times.
in chapter 22, it starts out with them leaving the court house which Jem is crying and yelling that it is not right. Atticuss tells him that no it is not right but they have done it before and they will continue to do so. The next morning Atticuss is called to the table for breakfast and sees a table full of food. Carponia says that it was a gift from the black community, saying thanks for what he did. Atticuss tears up and tells Carponia to tell them not to do it again because it is a difficult economic time, in the great depression. Jem is taking this harder then Scout since Jem is older and becoming more mature. Ms. Maudy says that someone should really step up and defend what he believes in, directing to Jem. At the end of the chapter Atticuss is spit at by Bob, he says that he will get Atticuss if it were the last thing he'll do.

Chapters 19 & 20
In chapter 19, "To Kill a Mockingbird", it starts of with Atticuss calling up Tom Robinson. We find out things about Tom Robinson and he had served time in jail because this one guy tried to cut him and since he couldn't pay the fee he served his time. He has nothing to hide which is good and he claims that it is true that he helped her with the dresser. He claims that that wasn't the first nor the last time he went over to help. He would go over every time she needed help she would ask him to and he would her free of charge. He claims that he would help her because he noticed that she didn't get much help from her family. Then he gives his side of the story and says that the so called victim called him over to her house and tried to kiss Tom. Then her dad sees her and calls her a hore and at that point Tom runs away because he is scared. What I understand from chapter is that Tom is telling the truth but no one believes him because he is black. His word would have a disadvantage against a white mans word. We can see how Atticuss is at a difficult situation to defend Tom.
In chapter 20, it starts off with Raymond, the white guy who only hangs out with black people, he also drinks from a coke bottle which they think it has alcohol in it. He gives some to Dill because his stomach got upset from listening the people in court. They then find out that it is just plain coke. Raymond tells them not to mention it to anyone or else his reputation would get ruined. At this point in court Atticuss claims that the evidence is clear that Tom is innocent but since Tom has his word against two white people, it is difficult for him to be free. Atticuss quotes Tomas Jefferson that everyone should be created equal and that the judge should do the right thing and that racism shouldn't take place here and that they should tell the truth.
