  1. TKAM Narration

  2. Discuss • Why might Harper Lee tell the story from an adult perspective, narrated many years after the fact? • In the first nine chapters, can you find statements that remind us of an adult point of view? • Or does the adult narrator enter completely into the world of her childhood?

  3. Discuss • How would this story be narrated, in the third person, from the point of view of Dill’s fabulous imagination? • How would it be different if Atticus was narrating? • What about Boo? • How would he describe Jem, Scout, and Dill?

  4. Do • Make a list of the primary and secondary characters that we have encountered thus far. Next to each name, give a very brief description illustrating who they are.
