To Kill A Mockingbird Essay

It is often said that actions speak louder than words. An intellectual adult influence is essential for youth while growing up and learning what is “wrong” and “right” in society. In the novel, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, it is seen many times that Atticus is the influence in Scout’s life. She learns more from Atticus than she can from school, such as not to judge others until she sees the world …

…it is seen that only outside the classroom, Scout really learns these simple lessons. In conclusion, Scout learns the most important lessons through Atticus’s moral actions. By teaching her about prejudice she understands not to judge someone just because they are considered outcasts. Scout would not have been able to gain these lessons if it was not for Atticus showing her through his actions and being an adult influence on her life. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
