Week 3 RR? - Understanding my character(s)

(Be sure to include quote and page number!!)

You must use at LEAST 2 quotes from the book.

Understanding your character is a good way for you to really get into your book and see from another person's perspective. In your response this week, describe your character. Think about and discuss:

-1. your main character's personality

- 2. how they act/behave

- 3. what they look like

- 4. how old they are

- 5 what sort of education do you think that they have

- 6 who their friends and family are

- 7 what their financial (money) situation is

- 8 and what their job is (if they have one).

In my book The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle by Ruth E.Murray.My main character different from other books I have read she is different because it doesn't talk about her family and also,because she doesn't have big problems like other kids in the book.The age she looks like is a 8 or 9 year old I a guessing this because she is very young and also because she doesn't go to school so I really don't know what age she is she doesn't go to school because she is always traveling to a "ship to different place." The way I describe is by looking at the cover the cover looks like a girl that is wearing blue pants with a white shirt and she is holding a rope in her hand.

I really don't think she has family member because she never talks about them her friend is Mr.Grummage because she always tells him her ideas and problems she has. The way I describe him is old man,short with a hoke on his hand with a blue new long jacket. She doesn't have money because of the she dress also,because she is "always working on the ship.Her job is helping Mr.Grummage take care of the ship."
