To Kill a Mockingbird

TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD
By Harper Lee, copyright 1960

It is  376 pages describing the life of a young girl in a southern town.
Outstanding reading,  at the end she is only in third grade, a young brother in early high school.  Includes the troubles of negroes in the early 1900's in the South of the USA.
A mockingbird in a very few lines is mentioned only once near the end of the book.
It is singing in an oak tree and mocking various other birds
Brought to my mind my early school days in a one room school house in southern Illinois.  Kasten School in Macoupin County.  Found a map showing all of those old schools in that county.

An outstanding book near the top of my reading list of 23 books "You Should Read."
Completed reading it on 11-4-2016.
