Chapter 1 response:
Jem, Dill and the narrator find Boo Radley's house very interesting for many reasons. It seems like Boo has been a hot topic in town gossip for a while. They think Boo is some kind of ghost or a crazy serial killer or something. Their interest is spawned mostly from fear. Also, they are curious. Boo and the rest of the Radleys sound like real outsiders. They don't interact at all with anyone else in the town. So that is what I think the reasons are for them to be so interested in Boo Radley's house.

There are many reasons why the Radley house sparks the interest of the residents of Maycomb. One reason is because in a town where everyone knows everything about everyone else, The Radley place is one of the few people and places they don't know about. Also, the legend revolving around the house makes it more haunting. The story of Boo Radley and his crimes adds mystery to the house where he lives. Lastly, with the shades always drawn and seemingly nobody there, it is unlike the other houses of the town. I feel it's for these reasons that the Radley House seems so interesting

Chapter 1
The radley house is very interestion to jem, dill, and the narrator not so much because of the building but the mystery behind it. They are intersted in Boo and what happened to him because no one has seen him out of the house in years, and many rumors are spread about him being a supposed serial killer. The house characters are very scared of the house and Boo for that reason. The look of the house also interests the characters because it is described as an abandoned looking house where everyones house is so open.use with the shutters always closed in a place I think at some point in the story Boo will reveal himself and all the about the house and his life will be unraveled.

Boo Radley's house is so interesting to people because find it full of mystery. There is also many rumors going around that Boo is a killer since no one has seen him in a long time. The Radley's house is also an un-known topic in Maycomb making people make up crazy storys about whats inside. The appearence of the house is also what makes the Radley house so interesting. The shutters are always closed where as most houses in Maycomb are very open. These are some reasons why the Radley house is so interesting and mysterious.

Boo Radley's house is one of the most talked about houses in the neighborhood. Everyone is interested in it, and seeing Boo himself. When Boo was a kid he got in with the wrong crowd, and ended up getting into big trouble. Since then he hasn't interacted with a lot of people, and stays in his house with secluded from the rest of the town. Rumors started stirring about what was going on in the house, and many people want to find out if it is fact or fiction. Also that is not the norm in the town, so it sparks extra interest in whats going on inside the spooky house. That is why the Radley house is so interesting.

Chapter 2:
Scout is looking forward to school because, she has watched her brother go, but never has gone herself. While Jem goes to school, it also says that she stays home and watches him through her telescope. shew also is very smart for her age, and probably wants to meet other kids like her. Obviously, it doesn't go well, so her attitude about school has changed, but I think it will stay this way.

The Radley's house is so interesting because they stay home all day long even on Sundays. Jem and Jean think Boo Radly is kind of a ghost.

CHAPTER 5

I agree with atticus in the form of the way that the children shouldn't disturb Boo. Either he was doing it out of fear or common decency, I think that he had a hidden agenda. Someting is up with Boo Radley.
