From Tomboy to girl
Everyone has been a child and we all grew up in our own way. You too. We all learn in our
own pace and way. Likewise Jem and Scout. Because Jem and Scout encounter difficult
situations in their daily life, they learn more and more about life. Scout develops her very
quickly. Scout grows and evolves the most over the course of the novel.
First of all, Scout learns about judging people. Take Boo Radley for example. In the beginning
of the book, Scout thinks Boo Radley is a scary and mean man. She, Jem and Dill make fun of
him by playing horror scenes about Boo. At some point Atticus tells her: “You never really
understand a person until you consider things from his point of view, until you climb into his
skin and walk around in it.” (Page 33). So Scout learns that she can not understand people
until she looks to the things the way they do. Around the end of the book, she understands
that Boo Radley is not a scary and mean person. She learns that it is not fair to judge people
without really understanding them. After that moment she is no longer afraid of Boo. She
was able to climb into his skin. Because of this development, Scout became a little bit more
adult.
