Chapters 8 & 9
Perspective: Uncle Jack
Dear Dairy,
For the first time ever I snows in Maycomb and this is a surprise. I see Jem and Scout happy faces because school is closed down for right now. I do not want my boy Jem to be playing with that boy Dill because he is a bad influence to Jem. Later that night Jem Scout and I went outside. All of the sudden we see Ms. Maudie's house and it is on fire. I just don't know what happened to start the fire. I hope she is alright. When the firefighters came and stopped the fire Scout's face had a weird reaction. She told me that she saw a tyranny of a spirit named Boo. Later she started to get quibbling with this story. Jem tried to use evasion on Scout because she was getting quibbling. Scout was tormenting Jem and I. Scout got weirder ever since she saw Boo Radley's spirit.Jem is acting way better now that he is not hanging out with that Dill kid. I think something that is going to happen in the next chapter is Scout will finally figure out the Radley mystery with the help of Walter and Jem. Also Scout, Jem and Walter might come face to face with Boo Radley.

Chapters 4-7
Perspective: Ms. Maudie Atkins
Dear Dairy,
Well in this chapter I see Scout and Jem playing again because school has ended for both of them. The game they are playing is called the Boo Radley game. This boo radley game they are playing is kind of making fun of the Radley family. I see Atticus pretty mad when he sees Scout and Jem playing this game. I think Scout and Jem are kind of getting scared because they don't think playing this game is safe anymore.
To me I think Scout and Jem are getting even more scared than before because they might be quibbling the spirits. I say that Atticus is mad at Scout and Jem because they are making fun of the Radleys and that might get the whole finch family haunted. Scout and Jem don't really care though because they are just playing that game. Scout also has the feeling of being left out because Jem and Dill are becoming better friends.
Something will happen to Jem because he is peeking into the Radley house and that is trespassing. Also I think Scout might do something to Dill because he is hanging out with Jem to long and Scout is getting jealous. I also think Atticus is going to suspend Jem from going outside or hanging out with Dill.
Scout used to treat Dill and Jem with respect but after they both started to hang out with each other she started to hate them little by little. Atticus is getting mad at Jem because Atticus thinks Dill is a bad influence to Jem.
Thank You
Ms. Maudie Atkins

Chapters 1-3
Perspective of Dill
What they see during each section
The things I have seen is I got new friends and their names are Jean Louise or Scout she likes to be called that and her brother Jem. They are both nice people, well to me they are nice people I don't know if they are nice to different types of people. Sometimes went we all play a game we like to do an intimidation on each other.
• What they feel about what is going on
The things I am feeling is I see a boy that is locked up in the basement and he can't get out of the basement. He is stuck all the way down there and he is lonely. He has no one to talk to. Now that he has died people say that they can see his ghost and people think the place is haunted by this boy. They also say the boy is a malevolent spirit.
• What they say to the other characters
I do tell Jem and Scout my secret because I know that they can keep a secret. I also know that they believed me because when I told other people about the malevolent spirit nobody believed me and when I met them they believed me about the malevolent boy. I also know that they can trust me as much as I trust them.
• What they think about what happens during each chapter
I think that Scout Jem and I will see that boy's. I know that I will meet someone that will really irk me and I will get mad and have a fight with them. Also I think something is going to happen to either one of us which is Scout, Jem, and Me.
• How do they treat other characters? How do they feel about them?
I say Scout is like the more the competitive type and Jem is like more of the weird and freaky type but to me they are like the same.Scout and Jem are very good friends to me I am glad that I left Massachusetts. If I did not leave Massachusetts I would not have these good friends.

QUESTION 1: 7. How did what you read today make you feel? Why?
RESPONSE 1: When I read my book today it made me feel like everyone is able to stop anything bad that has happened during school hours. Also, even teachers that started a project can end it. I think this because the teacher Ben Ross stopped his project the Wave. The reason he has stopped the wave was because kids were being crazy like the Nazi and the leader Hitler.
QUESTION 2: 19. What in the book upsets you or bothers you? Why?
RESPONSE 2: This book makes me upset because the book should have been longer. Also, because I think there should have been more conflicts because there was two major conflicts there should have been three in total. One of the conflicts was The Wave. The Wave was a classroom project that turned into a disaster. The other conflict was Laurie and David breaking up.I think the other conflict should be That class versus another class to see who's class project makes the most money.

QUESTION 1: 1. How is a character in your book similar to a character in another book, story, or movie
RESPONSE 1: I think Laurie Sanders is like Ponyboy from the book called The Outsiders. The reason I think Laurie is like Ponyboy because they both help people.In The Wave Laurie helps her class by telling people not to go to the wave rally. In the Outsiders Pony helps people in a church when the church gets on fire.
QUESTION 2: 8. What do you think about a particular character's actions? Was he/she right or wrong to do that
RESPONSE 2: I think Laurie's boyfriend David is doing the right thing. The thing he did was hit Laurie. That was the right thing to do because she was acting weird and becoming stupid. Another action that was right was when David and his friends stole Laurie's computer to change everyone's idea of the wave. This made Laurie very mad.
