To Kill a Mockingbird: Chapters 4 and 5
In Chapters 4 and 5 of To Kill a Mockingbird, you can really see how Jem and Scout react around each other. When Scout finds gum in one of the Radley's oak trees, Jem gets very aggravated with her. Scout chews the gum and Jem wants her to spit it out. He tells Scout that she should no better and not touch the trees at the Radley house but wasn't Jem the one who touched the house? I feel he is trying to protect his sister but I also feel like he wants to be adventurous as well. In Chapter 5, Jem and Scout grow apart because he does not want to hang out with her as much. Jem believes she acts as a "girl" and hangs out with Dill more instead. However this results in a more deeper friendship with Miss Maudie for Scout. Scout wants to stay out of the Radleys while Jem and Dill want to be adventurous. Dill causes a lot of trouble in my point of view because he said that it was his idea to write a note to Boo Radley which eventually leads to Atticus being infuriated with Dill, Scout, and Jem. I liked these Chapters because the characters separate more leading to new characters as well.
