www.swisseduc.ch/english/readinglist/leeh/mockingbird.htmlThis site is very useful and informative and has a lot of imformation about the book. It has background material on the book and History of the Geography of the book. It has infromation about different events that occured in the book, and tons of links. You can even request information and ask questions. It has a good summary of the events and unusual infromation about when the book was first written. THis is a quality site.

Here is my review:
I liked this site because it is very informative and gets you to think deeper about the book, and if you don't understand, it helps you understand. I really liked the character analysis because sometimes in a book i forget a character and it doesn't make sense, so I thought that it was a handy link. I also like the top ten quotes because it would be a good thing to write the essays on. If you need help with anything, i suggest you go here.

www.lausd.k12.ca.us/Belmont_HS/tkm/Even though this site wasn't as detailed, I checked many other sites and found this one slightly more intersting. This site gives you a small summary of each chapter in the book which can help one who has not yet read the book get a good background idea of the contents. It is not the greatest site but i found it useful for those who are reading along for they could use it to find definitions for words they don't know the meaning of. The definitions of some words could help explain applied meanings behind the text for those "picky" readers. The summaries are not in detail but its a fair background for those about to read and the definitions are good for those reading it.

www.allreaders.com/Topics/info_1072.aspI like this site because it tells others about the book and what it's based on. It also tells some of the affects on Jem and Scout from the activities that happen in this book, such as the trial.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_Kill_a_MockingbirdI was really trying to find a site no one else had. well as we know dill is based on Truman Capote, but also he had implied that he had written a portion of her novel and some say he added the whole ghost idea. but there was a letter he wrote his aunt in july 9,1959 that said she written the whole thing herself.Also i found out that the bluejays bully the mockingbirds which makes metaphorically both boo radley and tom rombinson seen as "mockingbirds." there is much more on this website and i think people should check it out.

I think this site is very interesting if you want to learn more about the settings of the book, symbolism, conflicts, characters, and other cool things like foreshadowing. Its not so much about the listing the actual chapters, but more focused on summerizing it and talking about metaphors and stuff. www.webspawner.com/users/timelessclassic/

www.homework-online.com/tkamb/index.aspthis website contians a chapter by chapter summery so that you can recall what happened and go back to make better comparisons and connections in your head and not have to search through page after page to find what you are looking for. It is also a good way to review the book. It analyses the characters so you can see a different point of view of each character.
