    Default FIRST BOOK! To Kill A Mockingbird.

    Our first TDT.com Book Club book has been selected by our very own Bear.

    To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee will be our first book club book. We will run this book for both November and December (to accommodate for the holidays!). Please use the time before November to find this book at your local bookstore, library, or on your shelf!

    EDITED November 1 - Here are the Questions:

    1. How and when did you first come to read To Kill A Mockingbird?


    2. Why does Atticus say that it's a sin to kill a mockingbird?


    3. Why do you think that killing a mockingbird is the only thing in the entire book, in the children's entire lives, that Atticus condemns as a sin?


    4. Who is your favorite minor character in the book?


    5. What are three memorable moments in the book?


    6. What is the most touching moment of the book?


    7. What is the most shocking moment of the book?


    EDITED NOV 14: RE: NEW QUESTIONS

    1.Do you think that Jem & Scout would have recieved as warm a reception at Calpurnia's church if Atticus had not been defending Tom Robinson? Why/why not?

    2. What was your reaction to Lula and her comments to Cal upon their arrival at the church?

    3. How do you feel about the discussion between Jem & Scout and Calpuria about her use of "nigger talk" at church and how she "shouldn't" speak that way sicne she "knows better"?

    **please excuse the use of the word "nigger" I am only attempting to use it in context of the book, and hope that it is seen that way in our forum**
