To kill a mocking thought

Have heard a lot about this book " To kill a mocking bird", have seen it with najs and baba long back, even tried it once but put it down after just a few pages. But this time around i pulled up my sleeves and told myself to finish this backlogged topic. And wow, I am happy that I read it finally.

Many a memories of my childhood got rekindled in those pages, specially the last few where the protagonist went to the Halloween function.
I remember my 8th standard, when my school has decided to have our annual day celebrated in Lajpat Bhavan(a big audi in Knp) and I was part of a play and a dance show. But i was a bit unhappy because my father was posted out of kanpur and hence nobody from the family could come. I was trying to be joyous but when everybody used to say that they will go back with their family, I was upset big time. I remember after the activities got over, I was just waiting for the people to leave so that I can take the school bus back home(it was late night), there came my sister in the green room exclaiming about my performance and then came Mom and woila my Dad was also there, I was overjoyed... Now I also can tell everybody in my class that my father too came and I was to go back with them. Then that walk from the auditorium to the main road, with moti jheel on one side, where my aunt told me jokingly that I was found in a lotus flower, is still one of the most recalled and memorable walk I have even taken with my father, and although I dont remember what were we discussing, but i am sure, he must have urged me improve my best.
Another thing that this book brought back were the experiments I uesd to do my younger brother and used to have big fights him on every occasion and how I once hit him with bat and opened up his head :P and me falling unconscious after breaking down the tree's branch. Those fantasies where I was falling down from my fighter Jet.
And the fear of the Dog living the lonely house across the road who used to bark the whole night and we daring to get our playing ball back from that ghostly house after breaking into it :P
