The main character in my book is Lizzy (Elizabeth) Enders. She is a very, you could say, stubborn girl. She wants things to go her way, but not in a bad sense. I mean that she likes it when things turn out happy and everything goes the way she thinks it should go. Unfortunately that is not reality. This is proved when Lizzy's family and some other families go on a trip on the Santa Fe trail. Lizzy's mother dies on the trip, thus making everyone rather depressed and upset. Her dad lost one arm in, I believe, the civil war. Her family has been asked to take the arch bishop's niece to the girl's school in Santa Fe. This girl is pretty annoying because she knows she's important, they promised her uncle her safe arrival. They can't have complaints about them to the arch bishop. So they take this girl to Santa Fe and they leave Lizzy there without telling her. They leave her without a goodbye. I think that is a pretty good reason to scream, which she did. Lizzy is also a kind of "judge a book by it's cover" girl. A first impression is the only impression you can make on her, unless you are really close to her. Proof of this attribute would be that Lizzy had only just met a girl named Elinora and she immediately didn't like her, not giving the girl a chance. As shown in the picture to the right, Lizzy has brown hair and light skin. Though in the picture Lizzy is wearing a dress, she doesn't really like them. She is just forced to wear the dress because it is school uniform. A cool quote I found was "Sometimes they say I'm not right in the head." page 45. I'm on page 62/230.
That's all folks! :)
