Discuss moments in the book when Atticus, Scout, or Jem attempt to metaphorically "walk in someone else's shoes." How does it change how they view the situations or people at hand?

Answer: Since "To Kill a Mockingbird" is a story about growing up, there are many instances in the novel when the children attempt to walk in someone else's shoes.

Explanation:

"To Kill a Mockingbird" is Harper Lee's 1960 novel, which is considered as a classic of Modern American literature. The novel is about the Finch family, which consists of a father who is a lawyer (Atticus), and his children Scout and Jem.

As the novel is about growing up and maturing, there are many instances in which the children (and adults) learn to understand others. For instance, the children initially think that Boo Radley is dangerous for them, because they listen to the rumors about him. It is only at the end of the novel when he rescues them from Bob Ewell that the children truly get to know Boo and "walk in his shoes." Similarly, Jem believes that Mrs. Dubose is evil and has no understanding for her strange behavior towards him and Scout. However, when Jem finds out that she is dying, he changes his perspective and understands what it must feel like to be in her position.
