Chapters 8 & 9
Perspective: Miss Maudie
I love tending to my flowers, it gives me so much joy. Today the Finch kids Scout and Jem made the funniest snowman. The odd snowman resembled Mr. Avery except with my pruning shears and hat. In the middle of the night, my house caught on fire. This probably happened because I kept a fire going for my beloved plants. I watched as my house slowing got eaten by flames. The snow made it harder for the flames to go away one hose ended up breaking! My house then collapsed and the roof put out the fire. After all the damage was done, I decided to stay with Miss Stephanie for a while. I didn't let this get to me though because a smaller house means a bigger garden. Which is exactly what I wanted. During the week the Finch's Uncle Jack comes to stay with them.
Great perspective as Miss Maudie. You talked about how you love your flowers and you talked about your house burning down in detail. Talk about the effort to save your furniture. Perhaps talk about Jem and Scout's concern for you.
