To Kill a Mockingbird is a 1960 novel by Harper Lee, which won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1961. Lee's only novel, a coming-of-age story, is told from the point of view of Jean Louise "Scout" Finch, the young daughter of Atticus Finch, a lawyer in Maycomb, Alabama, a fictional small town in the Deep South of the United States. She is accompanied by her brother Jem and their mutual friend Dill.

It's a story/movie about racism as in a black man accused of having sex with a white woman(which never happened) Atticus (Gregory Peck ) was his lawyer. You need to read the book or rent the movie. I found a movie at a yard sell and already seen it 3 times. Very good and i recommend it highly.Harper Lee wrote this . Peck won an Oscar for this role.They just dont make movies or books like this anymore. I read the book first and saw the movie 3 times and it just gets better every time i see it.

oh man. there's alot. basically..there's this man named atticus. has these 2 kids named scout ( a girl who is a tom boy) and jem..i think is the sons name. anyway he is a really smart man..and ends up going to court for something..and then scout does something to save him..there's a whole bunch of symbolism. yea..you know what..you really just gotta read the book. **** i wish someone did my homework for me wheni had to read and no one did. it's really a good story actually and i guarantee you no one's summary on here will suffice all the work and things you'll have to know about this book. good luck to ya.
