Chapter 8 Fast Forward
Summary: That winter it snows in Maycomb for the first time since 1885.
Scout and Jem use dirt covered with snow to make a snowman that
looks remarkably like Mr. Avery, an unfriendly neighbor. Atticus is
impressed, but then sees the resemblance and kindly asks them to
disguise the snowman a little bit better.
The snow makes it cold, and everyone keeps their fires blazing. That
night Miss Maudie's house catches fire. Everyone in the neighborhood
pitches in to save what they can, but the house burns to the ground.
Miss Maudie says the house was too big anyway.
Scout and Jem watch the fire from in front of the Radley house down
the street. When they come inside, Scout discovers that someone has
draped a blanket over her shoulders. Jem says it must have been Boo
Radley who gave her the blanket. Jem has grown out of seeing Boo as
a monster; he can imagine Boo being kind.
Here's Maycomb at
its best: neighbors
helping each other.
But the fire also
marks the end of
innocence. The rest
of Mockingbird is
dominated by the
trial of Tom
Robinson.
