To Kill a Mockingbird
To Kill a Mocking Bird is based in about 1935. It is set in a small town in Alabama called Maycomb. Maycomb, like most small southern towns, has a problem with widespread racism .

She still has her innocence and has not yet been able to understand the concepts of racial discrimination or hate. Scout is confused by what some of her classmates have been saying about her father, Atticus Finch. Many of her classmates call Atticus a nigger lover. Being only six Scout does not know how to handle such situations so she solves her problems by fighting.

Scout, Jem and Dill followed him there to make sure that nothing happened to him. Suddenly several cars pulled up at the jail. A mob got out of the vehicles and demanded that Atticus step aside so that they could get at Tom....
