To Kill a Mocking bird  7-1

The beginning jumped right into the story and it was hard to follow at first.  I started spouting out all the characters and I didn't know what it was talking about.  Finally I understood there is a boy adn girl who live with their dad and thier servant, Calphurnia.  There mom died when the little girl was two so she said she didn't miss her at all.  I thought it was sad not to miss your own mother because you never got to know her.  It would be so hard for me if one of my parents died becuase both of them teach me everything I need to know, but in different ways.
