When Scout meets Boo for the first time. She says something like, "Hey, Boo," and Atticus formerly introduces Scout to "Mr. Arthur Radley," saying that he thinks Boo already knows her. The connection that has been building between Boo and the children over the course of the novel has been alluded to, but not discussed in the open. Not only were there the gifts he left in the tree, but the laugh Scout heard when her tire banged into their house. It is safe to assume that there has been little laughter in this man's life, but the chidren's interest in him has been like love to a man so neglected and abused by his family. As
