In To Kill a Mockingbird, Atticus famously says, "You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... until you climb into his skin and walk around in it." This is also a central premise in Of Mice and Men and Just Mercy. After watching My Octopus Teacher on Netflix, where documentary filmmaker
Craig Foster forms a surprising bond with an octopus, compare the lessons learned in To Kill a Mockingbird to those learned by Foster in My Octopus Teacher. If you see
connections to Just Mercy, feel free to incorporate those as well!
Consider the following:
1. The way Foster Idarns about the octopus and her environment in comparison to
how Scout and you, as the reader, learn about Maycomb: What's surprising?
Unexpected? Challenges to stereotypes or preconceived notions? Connections
to Stevenson and the criminal justice system in Just Mercy?
2. The unexpected bond formed between Foster and the octopus: How is this
similar to relationships formed in To Kill a Mockingbird? Of Mice and Men? Just
Mercy?
3. The way Foster first viewed the environment he was in versus the way he ends
up viewing it: How can this be compared to the maturation of Scout and Jem in
To Kill a Mockingbird? The portrayal and changing of the American Dream in Of
Mice and Men? How Stevenson learns to view the criminal justice system and
those he works with?
4. Any other connections or insights you come up with (Be a critical thinker and be
willing to think outside the box!)

1. at the conclusion of chapter 13, the monster realizes that he has none of the qualities or possessions that human beings value, and so he worries the he will be forever miserable. he says, “oh, that i had for ever remained in my native wood, nor known nor felt beyond the sensations of hunger, thirst, and heat! ” this statement recalls one made by victor frankenstein in chapter 10: “if our impulses were confined to hunger, thirst, and desire, we might nearly be free; but now we are moved by every wind that blows, and a chance word or scene that that word may convey to us.” questions: what do these two statements suggest about the impact of knowledge? how do the statements affect the way readers view the monster and victor?
