Scout found the unfinished manuscript on Bob Ewell’s body after Jem killed him, and later altered the plot to make Mr. Ewell into the town drunk and all-around bad guy.
Uh, Scout?'Who Really Wrote 'To Kill a Mockingbird?'
Its pretty plain that Scout is a type of Harper Lee, and Atticus Finch is a type of Lee's father.Harper Lee is a writer, Scout is a painter. Big difference? Not IMHO (in fact, somebody should investigate whether Lee ever painted as a hobby).
