In the book” To Kill A Mockingbird,” there were many conflicts throughout the story. A lot of characters had confrontation with one another. Tolerance is a big part of this book. Tolerance is one puts up with another no mater what there saying or doing. Many people think tolerance is important today because you need it to be able to go anywhere in life. Tolerance is an important part during a job. Scout has many times throughout the story, where she deals with tolerance. Scout isn’t a very patient but she ends up tolerating people in the story. She tolerates wearing the dress at the beginning of the book, even though she doesn’t like dresses. She also later on in the book leaves the house without her sandals even though she wanted to wear them.

Mrs. Dubose has moment she has to tolerate others in the story. She doesn’t really like kids. In the story she’s always having to tolerate Jem and Scout. She also doesn’t get along with well with others. She constantly takes drugs from frustration and so she doesn’t get to upset. Mrs. Dubose is a very interesting character.

Atticus also has many moments throughout the story that he has to tolerate others. The main moment that stuck out to me was when Mr. Ewell spits in his face. Atticus could have hit him but instead he just slowly walked away into his car. He also had to put up with shooting the dog. That took a lot of tolerance when he had to fire the gun when others told him not too.

In the end the author Harper Lee is trying to tell us to not judge a person by color. He also is trying to say that tolerance is an important aspect of our life. Tolerance is what makes people have less stress. “To Kill A Mockingbird,” is a very interesting novel. This novel has a lot of life lessons.
