It was an entire chapter in the book and I do not think that it is right that there was no mention of it. Another big thing that bothered me was that Granpa was the first to die. None of the dogs had died yet, just Granpa which got me a little agitated. The movie took away a lot of important events that had an impact on Little Trees life. For example, in the book Little Tree is saving money for a box of candy to give to his Granpa and Granma and is mentioned throughout the book.
In the second chapter after his grandfather died he was broke down and sort of going crazy because he had lost his best friend. Then in the third and fourth chapter he transformed and went to the orphanage to find clues concerning his grandfather’s life. Another brave and heroic event was when he went to meet the headmistress. In the passage it says “They walk up the solid steps that lead to the porch. Emma and Millard want to take Jacob to meet the headmistress.” I think this is heroic because Jacob doesn’t know what to except as he waits to go in the meeting and he’s is very young.

A certain tree near the Radley house has a hole in which little presents are often left for them. The children don't know where these gifts are coming from, and when they go to leave a note for the mystery giver, they find that Boo's brother has plugged up the hole with cement. The next winter brings snow, and Miss Maudie's house catches on fire. While Jem and Scout watch the blaze from near the Radley house, someone puts a blanket around Scout. Not until she returns home and Atticus asks her where the blanket came from does she realize that Boo Radley must have put it around her while she was entranced by watching Miss Maudie, her
Although Atticus didn’t win the trail, he showed courage by trying. Boo is the next person to show courage. Since he was a teen Boo, Arthur Radley, was locked up in his house because of something he had done. Through the book he began to watch Scout and Jem. He gave them gifts with hints that he was watching them and that he was their friend, but Jem and Scout didn’t understand the gifts until the end of the book when he saves them from being killed.
He's staying with us forever.” This quote is near the beginning of the movie when Tom has just met a girl named Jackie who he really likes. She is standing at the front of his house and Charlies (Toms brother) has just rubbed poo into the carpet. The next day Jackie and Tom talk about it and Jackie says she won’t tell anyone because she believes it doesn’t matter. Jackie is being empathetic towards Tom by understanding how he feels about having a disabled brother. Tom’s parents teach Tom about how he needs to be more accepting of Charlie and has to deal with having a disabled brother.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Dialectical Journal Ch 1-3 “ The Window Douglas she took me for her son, and allowed she would sivilize me; but it was a rough living in the house all the time, considering how dismal regular and decent the window was in all her ways; and so when I couldn't stand it no longer I lit out” (1,1) “ When we was ten foot off Tom whispered to me, and wanted to tie Jim to the tree for fun. But I said no; je might wake and make a disturbance, and then they'd find out I warn't in. Then Tom said he hadn't got candles enough, and he would slip in the kitchen and get some more. I didn't want him to try. I said Jim might wake up and come.
As time passes, possibly seeing other more important life event happening around him, his childish pestering gradually subsides. To show his adulthood, Jem, in one instant, happily states his lightly growing chest hair to his sister as in “He unbuttoned his shirt, grinning shyly…‘well it’s hair’” (Lee 225). His intention is to try to get his father’s attention as he slowly becomes an admirer of a lawyer who defends justice. Scout was originally what one may define as a “hothead,” for her unruly temper. Even on the first day of school, having no provocation Scout starts a fight.
[1] The tale was not an original creation by Southey,[3] but was a retelling of a story that had long been in circulation. [4] Southey had been telling the story to others as early as September 1813, and in 1831 Eleanor Mure versified the tale and presented it to her nephew Horace Broke as a birthday gift. [3] Southey and Mure differ in details. Southey's bears have porridge but Mure's have milk;[3] Southey's old woman has no motive for entering the house but Mure's old woman is piqued when her courtesy visit is rebuffed;[5] Southey's old woman runs away when discovered, but Mure's old woman is impaled on the steeple of St Paul's Cathedral.
