To Kill a Mockingbird -- Since Scout is the narrator of the book, and is also a main character of the book, I got really confused about her comment near the end of the book:
"...neighbors give in return. We never put back into the tree what we took out of it: we had given him nothing, and it made me sad"
Is that the ADULT-Scout Narrator or the CHILD-Scout in the book?

She narrarates the book from adulthood the entire time. The book is based on her childhood memories. The point of the story is for her to show how much she respects her father (Atticus) and how much this particular time in her childhood had a lifelong impact on her future existance.

Well since it was near the end of the book, it was probably the ADULT-Scout

throughout the book we see scout transforming from a child into a mature kid.So it is the child scout who says the lines.
