I first read this book in
fifth-grade. I grew up in a family of boys and so I instantly identified with
the relationships Scout had with Jem and Dill. But more than anything I
idolized Atticus. To Kill a Mockingbird is a coming of age story in
which the moral values of Scout Finch are molded . . . as mine were while I read
and re-read this book at an early age.
Check out this classic
and see what you'll discover!
"To
Kill a Mockingbird has earned
many distinctions since its original publication in 1960. It won the Pulitzer
Prize, has been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than
thirty million copies worldwide, and been made into an enormously popular
movie. Most recently, librarians across the country gave the book the highest
of honors by voting it the best novel of the twentieth century."
