As many characters in the book didn't talk about Boo and changed the subject when he came up, it is hard to grasp the opinion of the adults in the novel about Boo. I believe that the kids didn't think of Boo as a evil man or a scary man, but as a sort of mystery of myth. But once he saved their lives, i believe then that they liked him and saw him as sort of a hero.

I agree. Boo Radley had a big impact on Jem's and Scout's lives. Although they had only been told terrible things about him, nobody had ever really seen or talked to him, and it turns out that he was actually a very nice person. After he saved their lives, I think that they realized that not everything Stephanie Crawford or anyone else in Maycomb says is always true. I think this experience also enforced one of Atticus's quotes: "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" (Lee 85).
