The book To Kill a Mockingbird was written by Harper Lee. It
was published in 1960 then it went on to win the Pulitzer prize in
1961 and was later made into an Academy Award winning film. Harper Lee

household), Aunt Alexandra (Atticus's sister), (Jem) Jeremy (The
oldest of Atticus's two children), (Scout) Jean Louise (The youngest
of the two . She also trys to be a boy by doing boy things). And you
can't forget their black maid. Her name is Calpurnia.
Miss Rachael is Dill's aunt that lives in Maycomb. Dill is a
friends with Jem and Scout.
According to Scout they are married. (Boo)
Arthur Radley is the person that takes Jem back to his house after Jem
gets hurt by Bob Ewell. Tom Robinson is a black man that was accused
of raping Mayella Ewell. Bob Ewell is Mayella's father. He is out for
revenge on Atticus for what he did to him and his daughter. Mayella is
Bob's daughter who supposedly got raped by Tom Robinson. Judge Taylor
is the Judge of Maycomb County. Heck Tate is the county law official.
