Now, I do not like Friends either Spoony
The book was much more complex. The central issue was always racism, but it used Scout Finch's character as someone who while being innocent was mature at the same time and how her thinking and opinions change with the help of those around her, Jem, Atticus, Maudie, Alexandra and eventually Arthur Radley. I think two important events that shaped the book significantly was when she and Jem visit the Negro church once with Calpurnia and another one was the reading sessions with Mrs. Dubose and her eventual death. Also one of the conversations with Jem in which they discuss people (folks) and how Atticus is looked at not only by the town but even at Finch's Landing where his own relatives disapprove of his Negro-support
This felt more like a mere highlights with just the court case of Tom Robinson being focussed on
