To Kill A Mockingbird Characters in your Neighborhood

If I could transfer the adventures of Scout and her adventures to my neighborhood, it would be similar in ways, but also different. Mine would also contain being with my brother (Although he is my younger brother, not my older brother like Jem is to Scout) and with a friend or cousin (Like Dill). Also, rather than trying to walk up to unknown houses to see who lived inside of them, it would be more of going on bike-rides to see what all unknown places we could ride to and discover for ourselves. I guess that, If Scout, Jem, and Dill lived in my neighborhood, I'd be friends with them, if we were the same age. We could do similar things as they do in the book, like exploring and making new exciting adventures.

Pay Attention. Be Astonished. Tell about it.

I think these 3 statements are things to live by. Pay attention. Learn about new things and new experiences. Be astonished. Have fun and enjoy what you do, everybody likes a surprise. Be excited about things. Tell about it. This means to live your experiences and be happy to, not exactly 'brag', but to share your prided experiences and fun times.
