I am reading To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee. The chapter is about two kids, the finches and they meet Dill. The kids are trying to get Boo Radley to come out of his house. In this journal, I will be predicting and characterizing.
As I keep reading the story I have predicted that they will not meet Boo Radley. Boo Radley is locked up. When he stabbed his dad with scissors he was locked up in the courthouse so the kids will not be able to see him.

When they looked back at the Radley’s house they reasoned the idea that the inside shutter had moved. Scout, Dill, and Jem would not go into the yard unless they wanted their eyes gouged out. A baseball hit into the Radley’s yard would be a lost
