The tree is dead

Prospective: Jem


Chapters 7,9


Dear Journal,


Me and scout were walking to school last month and as we were walking to school I said “Look


Scout!” someone had put cement in our tree. At first Scout said someone else stuff, we both agreed to


leave it there for a while, and if someone comes and gets it then its their tree. We left it for three days


and no one came for it so we made it our tree. Me and Scout were thinking who put cement in our tree.


Maybe Mr Nathan? The next day sure enough it was him he said the tree was dying and that's why he


did that. But Atticus said the tree was healthy. A month went by it turned from Autumn to Winter and


old Mr. Radley died. Atticus went to go to the Radley 's house but didn't see Boo Radley. The next


mourning Scout woke up and said the world was ending but it was just snow, it was her first time


seeing snow. I seen snow before but it rarely snows here. Me and Scout build a snowman it look just


like Mr. Avery. Atticus said it looked lovely but it wasn't nice for Mr. Avery. The next morning woke


me and Scout up it seem it seemed to be a fire at Ms. Matties house. Atticus told us to stay at the


Radleys front gate. We were watching the fire man trying to take out the fire. We also see people taking


out furniture from here house. We went home and made breakfast Atticus told Scout to say thank you to


Boo Radley. Scout asked “Why?”. Atticus said while she was watching the firemen putting out the fire


Boo came out and put a blanket over Scout to keep her warm, if only Scout had turn around.
