To Kill a Mockingbird 26-31

"Atticus, he was real nice...His hands were under my chin, pulling up the cover, tucking it around me. Most people are, Scout, when you finally see them". After reading this final statement, you can tell that this story really was about growing up and all the things that you go through. The part near the final ending of the novel where Scout has a sudden flashback was the section that really struck me. It was then that I realized, the Scout we once knew is really changing. In the ending of chapter 29 when Scout meets Boo Radley after all these years was also a shock to me. Since Boo saved Scout and Jem that also connects back to the quote that I had stated at the top. Another quote I liked was near the ending of chapter 30, "Well, it'd be sort of like shootin' a mockingbird, wouldn't it?". I loved how Scout had actually remembered what Atticus had told her about the mockingbird in the previous chapters. Within these final chapters, I also have come to the conclusion that Atticus is a caring parent. He had not shown it much in the previous chapters but, since he knew that his children were in danger he knew that if he lost them he would have nothing. This also connects back to the quote in the way beginning of the novel, "Lawyers, I suppose, were children once". With all of these connections throughout this novel, this story is really all about life.
