Chapter 1
The first chapter seemed a little weird and confusing at first because of the southern style of writing. Towards the end of the chapter it became a little bit more easier to comprehend. Scout, the narrator, is immature, in my opinion, but that's probably just because she's young. For example, she asked Dill why he doesn't have a father and if his father was dead. Jem, Scout's older brother, looks after Scout. Atticus, the father of Scout and Jem, seems like the wise one, and sets an example for how to behave be nice to other people. When Jem asked Atticus about the Radley's, he would always tell Jem to mind his own business. I really can't tell what's going to happen later on in the book.

Yeah I was very confused at the beginning of this book. The dialect is something you have to get used to. Sort of like when we read Their Eyes Were Watching God. The dialect was very intense, but after you read a little bit of it you got used to it and could understand what they were saying.
Also, I don't think that scout is immature. She is just young. She is actually very mature for her age, and very advance. She is just young, and does not know any better on some things.
