Sacrifice the money you might have spent on your next three hamburgers, ten itunes, or anything else, and go buy a new one. You will own it, love it, write notes in it, and pass it on to your children. They will love you for it.
Failing that, there are many of us familiar with the text. Ask a specific question. You will get food to write the best essay ever from the avid readers of this site.

I guess one of the factors to have contributed to its success is how the writer has actually imagined the child's perspective and written about it in a manner that makes it lucid for the reader as well... a child doesn't know skin color or literacy level .. it only knows what is taught to him/her..
we take the world as it is for granted, not knowing the difficult lives that were led by the colored people back then; an eye opener for me at least!

- Latest Review: "The Secret Dead" by SW Fairbrother
Classified as classic literature, I wonder if at this time in our society, the youth would even understand this piece except as a history lesson. Mockingbird is a coming of age book, and exemplifies individual thought formation and consequences of moral action. However, since the Civil Rights Act, many instances of prejudice and racism have been diminished, hence the history lesson for today’s youth.

- Latest Review: "Deadly Secrets" by Robert Boris Riskin
Although I liked the book, I didn’t like the fact that the father was wise during most of the book but didn't seem to exercise this wisdom toward the end of the story.
From a writer’s point of view I think Harper Lee is brilliant. Her story line flowed, evoked emotion, and her writing style allowed me to picture the world the characters inhabited.
