Of Mice and Men
Lennie
What sets him apart
He has a slight mental disability so he acts as if he were a child. He also has the pure heart and imagination of a child. Because of this, he has very high hopes for his future with his brother George who acts as lennie's care taker.
Set backs
This large, docile, child hear-ted man also gets himself, as well as George, into some conflict. He loves petting soft cuddly things like puppies, hair, and even some clothing . This is troubling with small animals because he doesn't understand his insane amount of strength and crushes things accidentally. The hair and clothing thing, as you could understand, gets taken the wrong way and causes himself and George to slip into some sticky situations.
