It was one of the coldest winters Maycomb County had seen in awhile. It as also the winter that Mrs. Radley died. No one really noticed because she was rarely seen. Jem and I thought that Boo had finally gotten her.
The next morning I woke up with a fright . I screamed and Atticus came running from the bathroom.
“The world’s endin’, Atticus! Please do something—!” I dragged him to the window and pointed.
“No it’s not,” he said. “It’s snowing.”
The phone rang and Eula May, the telephone operator , called and said there would be no school. Jem and I ran to the backyard and it was covered with a small layer of soggy snow. We decided to make a snowman. Atticus didn’t think we’d have enough snow to make a snowball.
