I walked out of the house on a Friday morning and both of our cats came running inside from underneath the car, which was unusual. So, I walked outside and looked under the car and there was a baby squirrel hugged up to the front drivers side tire fighting for his life. Apparently the cats had been tormenting him all night long.
From Flora’s point of view, the story is altered and the audience may in fact see the governess in a different way, perhaps less reliable and more frightening.

Lee writes, “Every night-sound I heard from my cot on the back porch was magnified three-fold; every scratch of feet on gravel was Boo Radley seeking revenge, every passing Negroe laughing in the night was Boo Radley loose and after us; insects splashing against the screen were Boo Radley’s insane fingers picking the wire to pieces…” (Lee 74). This quote shows Scout’s immense fear for Boo Radley and how she sees him as a monster rather than an actual person. When she is on the Radley porch though, Scout not only recognizes Boo’s kindness for saving her life, but realises that she had misjudged him. Scout looks to her street and imagines the past few years from that perspective.
