He was also putting himself and his children in danger but he did, as it was the right thing to do. He was courageous when he shot the rabid dog when the sheriff could not.

Christopher Boone, the autistic teen who narrates the story The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, is a character I personally found very interesting. Some of the characteristics that make him unique as a person are also the characteristics that allow the story to progress in a suspenseful and unique way.

It leads to a lot of confusion when he talks to a great number of the people he encounters throughout his journey to find Wellington’s killer.

Nobody dares to confront the problems but Atticus who is the only one brave enough to pull the trigger and also the only one brave enough to go against the social prejudice of the town.
