My first impressions of Boo Radley was that something was seriously wrong with him, and he was completely crazy. The quote that led me to think this was, "As Mr. Radley passed by, Boo drove the scissors into his parent's leg, pulled them out, wiped them on his pants, and resumed his activities."(page11) I thought it was a bit creepy when Mrs. Crawford claimed she saw Boo Radley looking straight through the window at her in the middle of the night. I don't think that the rumours told by Mrs.Crawford are true at all because they don't sound very believable. Rumours are rarley ever true. I think Boo Radley is just highly misunderstood by the townspeople. They might make up these rumours cause they don't know much about him and he's always cooped up in his house all the time.
I think I am most similar to Jem than Dill or Scout because I would have taken the dare to touch the Radley's house, and I'm the kind of person who would talk to my little brother like Jem would to Scout. I would act like I know a lot more than I actually do.

I thought your blog on Boo Radley was very good. It was just what i was thinking. Like how everyone just makes up all that stuff about him because they don't really know who he is. I think that you really understand what is happening. I like your point of veiw a lot.
