    I just love the character Carla Davis, the school counselor, in the novel, There’s a Boy In the Girls’ Bathroom by Louis Sachar. She is so kind and only wants to help students, even when they are not very nice to her. She is determined not to give up on helping Bradley, the class bully, who has many problems. She has to be brave to face the parents in the school and even when things get difficult for her and she must make some changes in her life she still remains positive. She is a great role model for me to try to be very understanding of others in my own life.

    I think my favorite character is Fudge in Judy Blume collection. It’s not that I like him because he is kind and can be my friend, it’s that Fudge makes BIG problems in stories which makes the book SO interesting. I really like Judy Blume collections.

    My favorite character is ‘Emily Windsnap’ at ‘The tail of Emily Windsnap’ by Liz Kesslen. I like this book because this book makes me non stop reading. When I start to read this book I also feels like I’m really with Emily. All of that, it cause by Emily. Because she is really brave and she is really detective! Once she got in to problem, she use clues to find out the answer! She is so cool!

    My favorite character is from the story The BFG by Roald Dahl. This character is a kind , friendly giant that does not eat human. The problem is a pretty difficult problem to solve but guess what?This character is kind and so the problem can be an easy problem to solve because you can get to know other pretty fast.
    The other character is Daisy from the story Sleepovers
    by Jacqueline Wilson.Daisy is a quiet girl who has a group of friends which are the best except for one girl who is in the group that nobody likes(because she is a meany)but nobody is brave enough to kick her out of the group. This book has a problem that is also hard to solve. One problem is how will Daisy break it to her mom about Cloe.Her dad already argees but her mother doesn’t.
    Finally the last character which is Jamie from the story My Pants are Haunted by Jim Benton. This character is a normal girl who face a big problem that in real live it can’t really happen. She is a funny girl with the kind friend that always will be. This story genre is fantasy.I think Jamie is a funny girl who lives in a fancy live with a scary problem.

    My favorite character is Fudge from Double Fudge series by Judy Blume because he is really funny.He is a trouble maker too and I allways buys the Judy Blume series because all the character in her book has more than 1 unicue parts.for example,Fudge is really the guy who like money and kind of like a weirdo.

    I have a lot of my favorite characters and one of them is Amelia. The author of those books are Marissa Moss.(I think) I like Amelia because she always tries her best instead of just giving up and be really upset. Another favorite characters are almost all the characters in Judy Blume’s book. Like Fudge, Peter, Sheila, and other characters. I like them because they are not like quiet or boring people.

    My favorite character is Kale, because he is honest and responable to his friends and parents. The related scene to that is, that Kale went to Evalota`s house and he spill the milk, so he felt so sorry to Evalota. So he cleaned the room for 1 hour. It sounded silly and strange, but it also sounded like Kale is very responable and honest. (HE IS HONEST BECAUSE HE DIDN`T LIE TO EVALOTA`S PARENTS.)

    I`m not sure about the title, but the author is Astrid Lindgren and she wrote Pippi.

    My favorite character is Judy in Judy Moody Saves the World. I like her because she is so creative. She made a picture of the world and banana peels around in Band-Aids and that means We can recycle banana peels

    The title is Mr. & Mrs. Twit. The author is Rodold.
    My favorite characters are both Mr.and Mrs. Twit because they are very ugly, yuggy and funny like one time Mrs. Twit goes and get a worm to make spagetthi for Mr. Twit. When Mr. Twit eat it, he said to Mrs. Twit “what is that?” and she laughed, so Mr. Twit threw the worm away. you know why Mrs. Twit laughed at Mr. Twit? Because his beard was covered with worm and worm and sauces. Haha, I think they are very funny.

    My favorite character is Howard Jeeter who is in the book called The kid in the Red Jacket. His parents had to move from Arizona to Massachusetts to get a new job, which they didn’t asked him about the moving. He lived in a really really REALLY old house since 1768, that makes him wonder which room did George Washington slept in. Also, I forgot to mention about walkytalky neighborhood, Molly Vera Thompson.Her parents got a divorce and she stayed with her grandmother. Howard’s mom really wants him to make friends with her and doesn’t want him to hide behind the sofa when she knocks the door, but still Howard doesn’t understand because he’s afraid to be like Ronald Dumont, who plays with little kids.
