Boo Radley Character Devolpment


                Boo Radley has so far been portrayed as a creepy, animal-like man.  As the book progresses, I think that this portrayal will change.  I predict that when the children first meet Boo, he will seem like an animal, because he has always spent his time inside.  However, as they spend time with him, he will start to seem less and sell like the stereotypes that they have heard for their entire lives.  He could very well only go out at night, but I don’t think that he peeks inside homes and eats animals raw. I think that as the story progresses Boo will come out at times and have subtle influences on what is going on, up until the point where they actually get him to come out. All of the rumors are most likely just that, rumors. How crazy he actually is still remains to be seen. While he may not seem like a completely sane human being at first when they meet him, by the end of the book he might seem more sane than he does now.
