Anne Rodney: A Character Analysis

After Scout returns home from her first day of school, Atticus notices her sulking behavior. She confides in him that Miss Caroline punished her for explaining the Cunningham’s poor financial situation. Yet, due to the fact that Miss Caroline was new and unfamiliar to the townspeople, she only became confused and frustrated by Scout’s explanation. Atticus explains that “…They could not expect her to learn all Maycomb’s ways in one day, and we could not hold her responsible when she knew no better” (Lee 40). Miss Caroline’s ignorance compared to Scout’s knowledge demonstrates how what may come easy to some is actually harder to come by for others.

But as the play continues, Claudius’ suspicions continue to grow which causes him to attempt to ask for forgiveness before anything may happen to him.

Lily came into the kitchen to get something cold to drink, when she found May on the floor making “a little highway of broken graham crackers and marshmallow bits” to guide the roach she saw out the door (172). This reminded her of when T. Ray told her that her “mother was a lunatic when it came to bugs… she used to make trails of graham cracker crumbs and marshmallows to lure roaches outside” (172) Because she saw May do the exact same thing her mother did, she started questioning if she could have learned that trick from May, or if it was from a book. Finally, she gathered up her courage and asked May if she had ever knew of a Deborah. She responded by saying “Oh, yes, Deborah Fontanel. She stayed out there in the honey house. She was the

Then, we wake up one morning and everything quickly changed over night. The storm clouds rolled in, taking our rainbows, butterflies, sunshine, and happiness with them. Our perfect day is gone. It's the end of the world. Brace yourself. On these bad days ladies, we turn into April Ludgate (the handful of you know who you are). But, that's okay. It's perfectly normal, actually.

He put them in concentration camps, but many tried to hid just like Anne Frank and her family. Anne Frank who was Jew, has a famous quote that says “In spite of everything, I still believe people are really good at heart.” Even though throughout the “Diary of Anne Frank” we see that people are not always the best they could be, I agree with Anne and believe that everyone is still good at heart.
