Character relation ships
Dill and Francis
In the book "To Kill A Mockingbird" by Harper lee the main protagonists has a lot of friends and family that may be foils to her or they may be alter egos to her but the two characters that I have picked are Dill And Francis.
One way that Francis and Dill are similar is because they both like to talk about what is on thier mind and how they feel instead of anybody else for example Francis called Atticus a "nigger lover" and he did not care what scout thought about it. Dill said that he almost died and was being abused because he wanted everybody to show him potty and keep him. Another reason that Francis and Dill are similar is because they both like to be bad, Dill was smoking in by the pond and Francis is always being provacitive with Scout.
The way that Dill and Francis are different is because Dill try's to take care of his problems on his own like when he just ran away and did not tell anybody. What Francis does is he just goes and tells a lie or snitches like he did when him and scout got into a fight. Another reason that these two characters are different is because Francis is really spoiled and is a mamas boy and that is who he always runs to when he has a problem and Dill is kind of a loner when it comes to being attached to anybody like a mother or father.
The kind of relationship that Dill shares with Scout is a love and friend relation ship because they are dating and dill says that he wants to marry scout when he grows up and Scout said yes. The relation ship that Scout and Francis have is pretty much a pure hate relation ship because all that they do is fight each other and scout actually punched Francis and they just do not get a long at all.
The effect that Francis has on scout is provocative because whenever she is around him they fight and scout just always thinks of what Francis had said about her father Atticus earlier in the book.
The affect that Dill has on Scout is kind of like her conscience because he gives her a lot of good advice that can help her, for example when they were at the trial Dill asked Scout if she wanted to leave because what they were hearing was not fit for a girl.

The way that the photo of an old house that looks broken down and not well taken care of that is in Eutaw Alabama that I have selected compares to the setting of where the main character or antagonist Scout lives in the book "To Kill A Mockingbird" by Harper Lee is because it reminds me of the old Radley place which is were a crazy man lives and they are just afraid of his old creaky house that lies at the corner of the street that Scout lives on.
The main things that I observed from this picture is that the house is obviously in a very malnourished condition and that is how the Radley place is described in the book, another thing that I noticed about the house in the picture that relates to the Radley place is that it is at the corner of the street which is where the boo Radley house is located in the book, you can tell that the house is at the end of the block is because to the left you can see a man walking on either a dirt or clay road which signifies the end of the block.
