Abby D-To Kill A Mockingbird

I read To Kill A Mockingbird, and my book is loaded with stereotypes. One stereotype in TKAM is the fact that Scout(one of the main characters) is a girl, yet she is nothing like one. She wears overalls, likes bugs, and rolls around in the mud and dirt with Jem(her brother) and Dill(her friend). When you think back to women in the 1900's(the time this book took place) you would thimk that a girl would wear dresses and drink tea with her mother's friends, but Scout did nothing of the sort. Harper Lee(the author) wanted to show that nobody is the same, and stereotypes should never be a label put on someone.
