  1. To Kill a Mockingbird:Chapters 28-31 The beginning of Chapter 28 deals with Halloween. The town is mad at some kids who went into these old ladies’ house and moved all of their furniture to their basement. It was a harmless prank, and the kids could get away with it because the ladies were hard of hearing. The town got mad and cancelled trick-or-treating and said they would have a pageant instead. The lady who wrote the pageant wanted kids to dress up as the “agricultural products” of their area, so Scout had to dress up in a ham costume. This costume is one of the most famous icons (images) from this novel.
