Letter of complaint Essay
This year in school my son Shem has brought to my attention that To turn thumbs down a Mockingbird will no longer be included in the school curriculum, though I feel this is a poor decision and that To Kill a Mockingbird is an important classic novel to read in school and should be included in lessons once more.Although To Kill a Mockingbird has been commonly regarded as a banned book for explicit wording and racism it is very informative and a noteworthy example of coming of age, and the wrongness of racism and stereotypes. For example Atticus, a character in To Kill a Mockingbird, who was a very respectable man in his community, represents a black man in court during a very racist era, doing all that he could to prove he was innocent despite the color of his skin this shows that not all of the topics regarding racism in the novel are negative.The poor language is in any case something that unfortunately children are already exposed to in everyday life. I feel that as long as the y understand the wrongness of this language and do not continue to repeat it then it shouldnt be of much concern. This langue it is important for children to be exposed to, to fully understand what life was like in the 1930s.This novel was set in a very important time in American history and exposes old practices that young students may not be familiar with in a more enjoyable and memorable fashion through the narrations of the character Scout. This may help the children learn more willingly and sunnily rather than learning from a text book that does not give them as great of an idea of what it might be like for someone to brisk during that time period. Teachers are also able to teach students about dialect, figures of speech, allusions and other literary devices using this novel. The characters in it are very colorful and developed hearty as well making a lot of material for discussions about characters.To Kill a Mocking Bird has been ranked by British librarians pull down befo re the Bible as a book that every adult must read before dying. The adaptation of the book was also made into an Oscar-winning flash which was released in 1962. The novel has became popular with time and the style of writing, the plot and characterization places it in the top 10 books that everyone should read, therefore as students are maturing I cerebrate that they should read To Kill a Mockingbird and be able to analyze and dig deeper into the book with the guidance of teachers and peers during school.In conclusion I believe that To Kill a Mockingbird should be included in school curriculum because it shows that racism and stereo types are unjust and not always true, exposes children to important clock in history and is a great example of literary devices and character development.Kind Regards,
