“if Calpurnia had ever bathed me roughly before, it was nothing compared to her supervision of that Saturday night’s routine. She made me soap all over twice, drew fresh water in the tub for each rinse; she stuck my head in the basin and washed it with Octagon soap and castile.” Calpurnia is a responsible person. She treated the children wholeheartedly. She didn’t only do her job because she was paid. She loved the children, as we can see from her action. Calpurnia works for the Finch family as their cook and mother figure. I get a very clear picture of Calpurnia in Chapter One. “She was all angles and bones.” This suggests the maybe she doesn’t have much money to buy food or that she is older. It also shows that she is older because “She had been with us ever since Jem was born, and I had felt her tyrannical presence for as long as I could remember.” She doesn’t take any nonsense from the fact that “Our battles were epic and one-sided.” As scout and jem’s mother has passed away when they were young, Calpurnia acted like their mother and take care of them. A little love- fiona fung [] Calpurnia not only being the cook, but also act as a mother. Just like in the song, “ you show me what is deep as sea”. She is a real model to jem and scout. She taught them a lot of values, and they learnt a lot from Calpurnia too.
