Who would you want to be friends with in the novel? Explain.

I would definitely choose Boo Radley. Boo Radley is someone who is different from the people in society, and is separated by society norms. He is a victim of prejudices in society. Despite this, Boo Radley was a caring person. This could be seen from Boo being caring a lot for the Jem and Scout Finch, and he placed what he wanted to give them, the chewing gums and coins, in a hole in the oak tree. He also placed a blanket over Scout during Maudie Atkinson's fire, when Scout was feeling very cold. Boo is also a very kind person, despite being ostracised by the society, he still does kind deeds, like saving Jem and Scout from Bob Ewell, at the end of the novel. All this showed that Boo Radley would be there when you need him. He is a mockingbird, who would only do good and no harm to others. This shows how good a friend he can be.
