My main character is Amir jan. He is the type of person who really cares about family but can't stand up for him self.

Kenesha  (niecey) | 27 comments The personality of the girl is very outgoing and very whatever happens happens. She hates to be felt sorry and she hates to have the feeling on being alone. The name of the book is "Read my lips". I'm not finished reading it yet but it's pretty good. It's about a girl who is deaf, but has has a very good ability to read lips, even from the other side of the room. The theme is trying to fit in and just trying to survive being deaf and being in high school.

Ginna Marciel | 24 comments My book is called "Imadoki". The main character in my book, Tanpopo is very energetic and happy. She was picked on at the beginning of the book, from being from a low class family. But she never showed that she was sad. She always smiled and put up with it, showing exactly how strong she was. She was always calm, happy, energetic, and a little stubborn.

message 34: by Shannon (new)

Shannon | 16 comments Describe the personality of the main character of your book. If your book is nonfiction describe the topic.
The main character in the book "green angel" goes through a major change in personality. At first she is quiet, shy, and optimistic; later when tragedy strikes she goes through a metamorphosis. Suddenly the world isn't a green world, life isn't as kind as she thought. She goes into a major depression and with that depression comes the start of dark moods and the feeling of hopelessness.
