What is Scout like in To Kill a Mockingbird?

Scout is the yougenst of two chldren and the narrator of the story. We read the book as a story seen through eyes but narrating as an adult (or so it would seem from her turn of phrase and grasp of adult themes). As a child though, she is annecdotally described as caring, thoughful (for the most part) and has a sort of hero worship of her father (as do most kids). We must assume that she is possessed of good observational skills and a decent memory in order to recall the events with such detail. She is a bit of a 'tomboy' prefering a bit of rough and tumble over dolls and dresses. This may partly be through not having a mother to assist or influence her in this regard. There is a female cook/maid but she is more utilitarian than nuturing so Scout's main influences are from the two men in her family.
