4 roles
A young girl, about to experience the events that will shape the rest of her life. She should, ideally, seem as young as nine. Scout is courageous and forthright. If a question occurs to her, she'll ask it.
He is a few years older than his sister Scout, and like his sister, (perhaps even more than his sister), he is reaching out to understand their unusual and thus not conuentionally admirable father. Probably the strongest undercurrent in Jem is his desire to communicate with his father.
Small, blond and wise beyond his years, he is about the same age as Jem. Dill is neater and better dressed than his friends. There's an undercurrent of sophistication to him, but his laugh is sudden and happy. Obviously there is a lack in his own home life, and he senses something in Atticus that's missing from his own family relationship.
