I'll post parts of the story that used the dogs as metaphors.

<span>"He chuckled as their muffled noises reminded him of whimpering puppies down at the animal shelter where he volunteered. Puppies always seemed to make noises as they played and whined for attention from the older dogs or volunteers. He liked working in the smaller dog area where all the older dogs looked out for the puppies, just like family, just like his family of older members looking out for the younger ones."

The metaphor of the dog gave me a clear picture of what their family is and how they act towards one another.

Their family is big in number and most of them are kids. They are a boisterous bunch and they enjoy each others company just like puppies. The older batch of cousins are like the big dogs that keep watch over the younger cousins like puppies.

Their family is big, happy, warm, and clearly enjoys each others company.</span>

In chapter 15, there are three distinct groups: the lynch mob, Atticus, and the kids. Which group or person had the most power?

Veronika [31]

Answer:

This is based on opinion, but I believe this one belongs to the kids.

Explanation:

Scout recognizes Mr. Cunningham: she asks about his entailment and about Walter, which makes him look uncomfortable. Remembering Atticus’s advice to talk to people about what they’re interested in, Scout mentions the entailment again and realizes that everyone, including Atticus, is staring at her openmouthed. She asks what’s wrong. Mr. Cunningham squats, tells Scout he’ll say hi to Walter, and leads the men away. Mr. Cunningham smiles at her, and leads the men away. Scout's innocence contributes to this save, and uses this leverage to save Tom Robinson.

One could say it was Atticus, but the mob was already towards making a move against him, but it was Scout who saved him from this danger.

Again, this is my opinion, and is entirely up to debate.
