My Boo Radley experience

            My Boo Radley experience was probably when I learned to ride my bike. I never wanted to learn to ride, I was scared I would fall and get hurt. After a while, I was the only one of my friends that couldn’t ride a bike. My friends had been riding for at least a year, so I finally faced my fear and asked my dad help me learn to ride a bike, so I wasn’t stuck walking. Once I learned to keep my balance, I found that it was actually pretty easy and fun to ride a bike. I was glad I learned to ride a bike.

This is much like Scout because she didn’t want to ever meet Boo Radley. She was scared of him and thought he would be a mean and scary person just like was scared of riding a bike. Boo was her worst fear just like falling of a bike was mine. She learned that she was wrong when Boo Radley saved her and Jem from Bob Ewell.  

When she walked him home, he was quiet and not a scary person, like she thought. I learned that riding a bike is fun and not something to be scared of, just like what Scout learned when she walked Boo Radley home. What was something we expected to be scary turned out to be like fearing nothing. We were both wrong, and that helped us learn that we shouldn’t be afraid of everything we have not tried or anyone we have not met.
