This year winter came in Maycomb. We had 2 weeks of the coldest weather sine 1885, Atticus said. Old Mrs. Radley died that winter. Jem and I thought that Boo had gotten her, but Atticus said she died of natural causes. The next day when I woke up, I screamed in fright and Atticus came. I asked what was outside and and he told me it was snow.
Jem and I went out and asked Miss Maudie if we could borrow her snow. She was more than happy to give it to us so we carried it over to our house. We wanted to build a snowman but didn't want to waste the snow so Jem started the snowman with dirt. After the snowman was formed with dirt, we covered it with snow and put on the face and buttons and made it look just like Mr. Avery.
