Jean Louise Finch‚ or Scout‚ is the novel’s narrator and principal character. She is a unique and remarkable character who does not quite fit in‚ or do what is expected of young girls in 1930s Alabama. Readers will note that Scout at the end of the novel is very different from Scout at the beginning and this is because she has developed so much as a character. At the start of the novel‚ she is a determined‚ spirited tomboy; she loves wearing trousers. She spends most of her time with Jem‚ her brother

I chose the book Poppleton‚ written by Cynthia Rylant and Illustrated by Mark Teague to complete my body biography on. I analyzed Poppleton the pig to be a very caring and kind hearted character. Poppleton was always putting others first in the chapter book and when he made them feel bad or sad; he would apologize for his mistakes and make a humorous situation out of it. Poppleton also would be caring because his friend was very sick and Poppleton did everything that he could in order to help his

In Tennessee Williams‚ "Streetcar Named Desire" the character of Stella Kowalski could be described as a passive‚ empathetic‚ and docile. Stella exhibits these traits when she is constantly being abused by her husband‚ yet always seems to come back‚ she claims its love and always finds excuses for his behavior.

What did you like about this script? The writer offers a unique and quirky‚ character-driven script‚ which has the potential to be wildly unpredictable with a mild bit of slapstick humor that I enjoyed. Though Pamela seemed to take the front seat in the narrative‚ I found that her daughter Syd’s character seemed to be the most agreeable. Her character felt as if she were the physical embodiment of the audience being forced to spend Thanksgiving with their family as all of their foolery behavior

Effi’s character definitely changed over the course of the novel. When Effi was first introduced in the novel‚ we saw her as a young loving girl who was full of adventure and imagination. Matter of fact‚ her mother often described her character as more of a tomboy than a girly girl. When Effi married Baron von Innstetten‚ she had this crazy illusion of how she imagined everything to be. Within a matter of time‚ her husband went off to do his work‚ leaving her cold‚ stranded‚ and lonely in their house

world. While looking back on the book I couldn’t think of many characters that displayed admirable qualities. Even though Pangloss stuck to his views that everything is for the best in this best of all possible worlds‚ which is admirable‚ he is stupid and naive to still believe this after everything he and his family goes through. It was quite hard for me to find admirable characters within Voltaire’s Candide‚ all of the characters seemed to do harm to one another in some way. Although as soon
