This is a description of Jean Louise Finch bur everyone call her only Scout. At the beginning of the book she was six years old and at the end she will be nine. She lives together with her father Atticus Finch and her brother Jeremy Finch called Jem in Mycomb County in Alabama.

Scout is a very glad and powerful personality. Every time she is doing something without thinking about it before. Her great role model is her brother who is four years her senior. But now when the second part of the boo starts this relationship is going to change. Jem is coming into puberty and he doesn’t like it any more to go to be seen together with her. So Scout searches other contacts. Scout spends much time together with Calpurnia the colored house wife who helps Atticus with the house and his children. At the beginning of the book Scout hated her but now they became really good friends.

The whole changing of Scouts live is very difficult to understand for her. If someone insults her as a nigger fiend or something like that she wants to go and hit him down. But her father said she should keep her had high and know: I’m better than he is because I’m right. He isn’t worth it to fight!
