Jean Louise "Scout" Finch is the narrator of the novel To Kill a Mockingbird and she displays numerous character traits which make her unique, entertaining, and memorable. Scout is a "tomboy" who enjoys playing with her brother and best friend, Dill. She wears overalls and absolutely despises acting feminine. Scout has a short temper and is involved in several fights throughout the novel. Despite being hot-headed, Scout has a good heart and is a morally upright character like her father. She tries her best to follow Atticus' instructions and views every individual equally, regardless of race or class. Since Scout is very young, she is naive about the world around her. As the novel progresses, Scout matures and gains perspective on Maycomb's society. Scout also has an affinity for reading and writing. Scout feels most comfortable on her father's lap while they read together. She even gets into trouble on her first day of school for having the ability to read and write. Scout is also a curious person. She is continually asking Atticus, Calpurnia, and Jem questions concerning comments that she hears or events that she witnesses throughout the novel.
