Changing Perceptions of Boo Radley

In chapters 4-8, several mysterious events can be traced back to Boo Radley. In chapter 8, for example, when Miss Maudie's house was burning down, Boo Radley put a blanket on Scout when she was cold. This changed my perception of Boo Radley because at first I thought he was just a completely insane person who needed some serious help. This act of Boo Radley clearly shows that he is not an insane person and that he's very kind. Another event that led me to think differently of Boo Radley is when Jem finds his pants mended and sewed up when he went back to get them . Nearly a week later, Jem finally tells Scout that when he went back to fetch his pants, "..they were folded across the fence... like they were expecting me." This event led me to think that Boo Radley is not as horrible or frightening as people say he is.
Scout's discussion with Miss Maudie about Boo Radley added on to my perception of Boo Radley in some ways. Miss Maudie tells Scout that Boo Radley's actual name is Arthur Radley and that he always spoke very nicely to her which clearly added to my perception of Boo Radley's true nature. Atticus's reaction to the children's play of Boo Radley supports my thoughts of Boo Radley's true character because he knows that Boo Radley isn't actually the kind of person who would stab his father's leg, but just a very lonely man who is highly misunderstood by the townspeople.
