In the book To Kill a Mockingbird Harper Lee uses theme in chapter 9 to show the reader how the world isn’t fair. My quote from chapter 9 is when scout says “ ‘You ain’t fair’ I said you ain’t fair’.” (Lee 97). This quote takes place during Christmas time. Atticus, Jem, and Scout were at one of their relatives house. Scout go into a altercation with Francis because Francis called Scout a nigger lover. After that Scout punches Francis in the face which leads everyone believing that scout started the fight even though Scout and Francis know it’s not true. Uncle Jack punished Scout, that's when Scout says you ain’t fair to uncle Jack. This quote shows theme because it reveals a truth about life, and that truth is that the world is unfair.
