Over the summer i read two books. I read To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, and The Pregnancy Project by Gaby Rodriguez. While reading these books i noticed how both books had very similar things happening in them, such as judgement for situations in the characters lives personally. Though I only choose a few quotes to represent the situations and the characters involved. There are many others to show other characters involved and their importance. There 's also many situations that represent the theme throughout both books.
In To Kill a Mockingbird there’s a lawyer name Atticus. He has two children, Scout and Jem. When Atticus is told by the court to defend a black man 's case, it bring great trouble to him and his family. Atticus …show more content…
Mayella stated that Tom Robinson had raped her.

When Atticus was appointed to the case he had to decide whether or not he wanted to take the case and have the challenges that are brought with it, or not take it and show that he can 't do his job well.

The first important decision comes from Gaby at the beginning of the book. “I realized early on that, even though I loved all of them, I didn’t want to follow in the footsteps of my family members.“ Gaby had a choice and she had chosen to not be like them and become a teen aren 't like everyone expects.. I find this the most important decision made throughout the story. The second was, “But i couldn’t have done that without Jorge’s approval.”. This is when Gaby, Jorge, and Gaby’s mom are planning the way the project will work and who to tell. Although Jorge wanted to tell his parents, Gaby pointed out reasons why that wasn’t the best idea. Jorge then agreed and didn’t tell his parents that Gaby’s pregnancy would be fake. This also shows how much importance he has in all of
