Title: Tolerance In To Kill A Mocking BYRD
Tolerance is when you are able to accept someone for who they are. Tolerance is important today because with out tolerance there would be a lot of problems in the world. The author shows the theme of tolerance by using Scout, because she becomes tolerant with black people. The author also shows the theme of tolerance by using Ms.Dubose because she is an old mean lady and people are tolerant with her. Another way the author shows the theme of tolerance is by using Jem because he invites Walter too eat at his house even though he just got in a fight with his sister the same day.

Scout was a good person too show the theme of tolerance for many reasons. One of them is that at first she does not really like black people, but then her father defends one and she learns to be tolerant with them. Scout is an unreliable narrator in this book, because she is just a little nine year old girl in this book. “Do you defend ? “. Scout said it like she was surprised because she probably thought that he did not like black people. Using Scout shows tolerance because she learns too accept black people.

Mrs.Dubose is an old mean lady that lives in the same city that Scout and all of her family live in. She is another good person too show tolerance because of her attitude towards Atticus’s family. She is always being mean with Jem and Scout and the Finch family does not seem to care and they all treat her with respect even though she does not treat them with respect.
