Chapter 22

Questions:
1. Why does Jem cry? Why is he sad?

2. Discuss why does Alexandra called him brother? Are you sometimes calling your brother or your sister, sister or brother?

3. What do you think the big cake was meaning, with Jem?

4. What and why do you think does Bob Ewell say that to Atticus?


Literary Luminary:
Page 212 paragraph 2. I chose this because when Calpurnia called Atticus brother, Scout reacted and I wondered in which way
Page 213 quote, "Tell them I'm very grateful," he said, "tell them...tel them they must never do this again. Times are too hard...." This made mad me wonder why Atticus was so depressed about it he held it in after the case but now e is crying it made me think that maybe Atticus was hoping they knew why he tried as hard as probably would have with any other man.

Page 215 quote"We're so rarely called on to be Christians, but when we are, we've got men like Atticus to go for us." Miss Maudie knows what she's talking about and she has great morals. I like how showed then that they might not have won but they have made a step. it also made me think of how you learn from your mistakes and this book a good example.

Summary:

Jem was crying because of what had happened, and he couldn’t believe that Tom Robinson was guilty. The next day food was given by the black people to Atticus for trying to defend Tom Robinson. Miss Maudie then tells the children that Atticus is not the only one who was trying to help Tom Robinson.

Picture:
Atticus may have defended Tom Robinson and lost his case but it didn't go unappreciated by the black community. Tom Robinson's father sent Atticus chicken and some others sent him a little something on his breakfast table( which all together turned out to be enough for his household) just to show appreciation of what he did for Tom Robinson. Even though Tom was falsely accused and was declared guilty people still gave Atticus their thanks for trying to help.
