Atticus's voice was even: "Alexandra, Calpurnia's not leaving this house until she wants to. You may think otherwise, but I couldn't have got along without her all these years. She's a faithful member of this family and you'll simply have to accept things the way they are."

While talking to Scout, Atticus reveals how loyal he is to family. His sister helped him with taking care of his children and he is grateful for that.

"In the second place, they're afraid. Then, they're-"

"Afraid, why?" asked Jem.

"Well, what if—say, Mr. Link Deas had to decide the amount of damages to award, say, Miss Maudie, when Miss Rachel ran over her with a car. Link wouldn't like the thought of losing either lady's business at his store, would he? So he tells Judge Taylor that he can't serve on the jury because he doesn't have anybody to keep store for him while he's gone. […]

"Serving on a jury forces a man to make up his mind and declare himself about something. Men don't like to do that. Sometimes it's unpleasant.

In Atticus and Jem's interaction, the readers are able to recognize how understanding Attticus is.

"Jem, see if you can stand in Bob Ewell's shoes a minute. I destroyed his last shred of credibility at that trial, if he had any to begin with. The man had to have some kind of comeback, his kind always does. So if spitting in my face and threatening me saved Mayella Ewell one extra beating, that's something I'll gladly take. He had to take it out on somebody and I'd rather it be me than that houseful of children out there. You understand?

Atticus is showing Jem how selfless he is even when talking about a guilty man.

"Read it out loud, please, Atticus. It's real scary."

"No," he said. "You've had enough scaring for a while. This is too-"

"Atticus, I wasn't scared."

He raised his eyebrows, and I protested: "Leastways not till I started telling Mr. Tate about it. Jem wasn't scared. Asked him and he said he wasn't. Besides, nothin's real scary except in books."

Scout's reaction towards her attacking shows how brave she is. Although she was almost killed, her fearless let her see past that and move on.

But why had he entrusted us with his deepest secret? I asked him why.

"Because you're children and you can understand it," he said, "and because I heard that one-"

He jerked his head at Dill: "Things haven't caught up with that one's instinct yet. Let him get a little older and he won't get sick and cry. Maybe things'll strike him as being—not quite right, say, but he won't cry, not when he gets a few years on him."

This shows how mature Scout is for her age. She is able to realize so much at her young age.

"Why couldn't I mash him?" I asked.

"Because they don't bother you," Jem answered in the darkness. He had turned out his reading light.

"Reckon you're at the stage now where you don't kill flies and mosquitoes now, I reckon," I said. "Lemme know when you change your mind. Tell you one thing, though, I ain't gonna sit around and not scratch a redbug."

"Aw dry up," he answered drowsily.

Jem was the one who was getting more like a girl every day, not I.

This shows how Scout and her brother share a close relationship. Through this interaction the readers see how Scout is similar to a tom boy figure.

Millie Bobby Brown should portray Scout because Millie is outgoing and tom boyish, similar to Scout's character.

The song, Brave represents To Kill a Mockingbird  because in the novel, Atticus, Jem, and Scout all showed their bravery in multiple ways. The song's main point is to know that it is bravery enables one to do so much more even when there are obstacles in the way. Atticus' bravery was shown when he decided to defend Tom Robinson in a case that faced racism. Jem and Scout were brave when the townspeople came to kill Tom and the two children stood in front of the county jail defending their father and Tom Robinson. The song Brave written by Sara Bareilles is a perfect example of a theme song for this novel.
