Neighbors bring food when someone dies, they bring flowers when someone is sick and a few other things on other occasions.
Boo was our neighbor and he gave us two dolls made of soap, a broken watch with chain, a knife. And our lives. Once
Atticus had told me "You'll never know if a person does not try to put yourself in his shoes, if you do not try to see things from his point of view." Ebbane, that night I knew what he meant.
Now that the darkness there was no fear we could cross the fence that separated us from the Radley house and watch the city and things from their front porch.
To Kill a Mockingbird (The Kill A Mockingbird), 1962
