Chptr. 12-16 Summarizer

 Summarizer
the setting of this section is in Maycomb during the great depression. there are many important events in this section of the story, Jem starts to mature and become a man. Their Father Atticus starts to do more work for his case deffending the black man. Calpurnia shows another side of her. Aunt Alexandra comes to town to bring a little "femininity" to the familly. and Dill runs away from home. all of these are important because it starts to bring a little chaos to Maycomb and well as the Finch family. these events influence the characters in the Finch family mostly because it kind of brings Jem the chances to prove hes a man when he tries to stand up for his father when he is threatened by the jailhouse. Alexandra tries to influence the family by making them more "civilized". the mood i felt in this section of the story was excitement and fear. I had the feeling like i was on the edge of my seat at a good spot in a movie.

In this part of the book it kind of teaches you that someone little can make a big difference. So if you think you cant do something because your little then you might be surprised. Scout felt as though she had a brilliant thought, and she spoke out against one of the men in the mob that were threatening her father and she had just the right things to say to make him think. She reminded Mr. Cunningham that he isn't just a big bad monster, but a human being with feelings and that he has people that love him. She made him remember that these aren't his enemies, these are his friends.
