TKAM Chapters: 7-9

Chapter 7: In this chapter we learn why Jem was so freaked out that night he had gotten back from the Radely's house. His pants were sewn and folded for him. I think that Boo was the one who
did that, because if it was true that he was some sort of rebel when he was younger he understands what the kids were doing. He gets that they didn't mean any harm. Also it becomes clear to
Jem and Scout that the items in the tree hole are meant for them due to the replica dolls of them. I think that Boo is trying to communicate with Jem and Scout and tell them a little about himself through the items he has given them. Although, for some reason Nathan closed up the tree hole with cement. Its almost as if he knows that Boo is trying to talk to them and wants to put an end to it, which is something I find very strange. 
Chapter 8: Their is evidence given in this chapter that Boo Radely is infact alove. Atticus seemed to have confirmed it and so did Miss. Maudie. He seems to be a genuially kind guy which is something I was able to tell by his actions (giving Scout a blanket to keep warm)
Chapter 9: Trouble starts to occur during this chapter, and Atticus is not being treated kindly because he has decided to defend an African American. I think that Atticus is going to win this case and Maycomb is going to be in for a change.
