Boo Radley

Boo Radley (Arthur Radley) is a mysterious man, he is an urban leyend in town .No one knows what happened to him , they remember him as a crazy and weird man. They believe that Boo Radley is still in the Radley`s house hiding. Jem describes him as six and a half, feet tall , bloodstained hands, long scar across his face, yellow and rotten teeth , eyes that seemed to pop out.

All are afraid of the Radley family, they know Boo is alive and is hiding in his home because in the book there is some evidence that Boo is still alive for example : when Dill, Jem and Scout sneak over to the Radley Place and peek in through a loose shutter. They see the shadow of a man with a hat on and flee, hearing a shotgun go off behind them. They escape under the fence, but Jem's pants get caught on the fence and a few days later, Jem tells Scout that he found the pants mysteriously mended and hung neatly over the fence.

Also when Miss Maudie's house was on fire and the neighbors help her save her furniture, and the fire truck arrives in time to stop the fire from spreading to other houses.In the confusion, someone drapes a blanket over Scout. When Atticus later asks her about it, she has no idea of who put it over her. Jem realizes That Boo Radley put it on her.

And also when Jem and Scout find some presents in the knothole of the tree that is in the Radley`s house is concluded that whoever put the presents in the knothole was Boo.

In conclusion Boo Radley is a mysterious man , No one knows if he is still alive but there are some kind of evidence that let us know that Boo Radley is hiding in his house but that he is not a bad person like the people says because he placed a blanket on Scout that is a sweet action from his part. So all the rumors that people tell are not true.

Pretty good! Remember when writing an expository essay, it's important to have a clear, concise and defined thesis statement in the first paragraph of the essay.

"Boo Radley (Arthur Radley) is a mysterious man, and is considered an urban legend in his town. No one knows about his shadowy past, and many people in town regard him as a strange and unstable person.": - Just be sure to back up your thesis with facts that support the thesis. Like how he is crazy or unstable. And provide examples from the book to support that statement. "Boo Radley has done A, B, and C, all strange or weird things that illustrate his strange or weird nature."

Only a couple spelling and grammar errors.

"that Boo is still alive.Forexample, when Dill, Jem and Scout sneak over to the Radley Place and peek in through a loose shutter,they see the".

It looks good, you supported your thesis statement that he was mysterious and weird, by giving examples of the weird and mysterious things Boo Radley has done. The mystery surrounding his existence, the chase scene when Jem's pants are caught on the fence, then are found mended on the fence the next day. Scout being mysteriously covered with a blanket by Boo during Miss Maudie's house fire, as well as the presents discovered in the knothole of a tree in Boo Radley's yard, both of which are very mysterious events which support the thesis of Boo being a mysterious man. Very good!

Just keep an eye out for those grammar errors, and everything else looks great. : )
