1. This novel is about how a child's
innocence can be destroyed by evil.
During Tom Robinson’s trial, Scout
and Jem had to grow up fast to
understand the unfairness in the court
case. They had discovered how social
status and race can destroy the way
people see others.
2. In this novel the mockingbird is a
symbol of innocence. The title
indicates that to kill a mockingbird
is to also kill all innocence. One of
the Finch’s neighbor’s Miss Maudie
explains to Scout that
“Mockingbirds don’t do one thing
but . . . sing their hearts out for us.
That’s why it’s a sin to kill a
mockingbird.”
3. "Dill was as good as his worst performance"
This simile from the novel, “To Kill a Mockingbird”, is about
Scout and Jem Finch’s friend Dill. Dill was known for making
up stories about his life. This quote is about how he was only as
good as his worst lie made him.
4. A source of situational irony in “To Kill a
mockingbird” is when Atticus is sitting outside
of the jail, protecting Tom Robinson. Mr.
Cunningham arrives at the jail with a group of
men. Atticus tells them to be quiet because
Tom is sleeping. The mob then starts to
whisper instead of talking loud. This is ironic
because if you are about to kill someone you
wouldn’t be allowing them to continue
sleeping.
