Turtle Wexler.
What are you looking at?
About Me and my Family.
My family
My mom, Grace Wexler, stands next to my father, with her hand on Angela. Mommy does not think I am pretty, much less a good daughter. Then, my angel sister Angela. Next to her is her fiance, Denton Deere
Some passages about me.
This passage shows that Turtle is not as closed up as I seem to be. Plus, I kind of like that elderly dressmaker.
“What is Turtle’s real name?” Doug Hoo was planning another nasty sign. “Tabitha-Ruth,” replied Mrs. Wexler with a bewildered look at Flora Baumbach, who said “Alice.” “Well, which is it?” “Tabitha-Ruth Wexler. I should know, I’m her mother.” Doug changed his mind about the sign. He couldn’t spell Tabitha-Ruth. ( page 67)
This blurb shows that I was lying to Flora, which means I don't trust her. I don't even trust her enough to tell her my real name! Or is Alice my real name? I am certainly not ready to tell anyone my real name, but they know it now. Well, they still have to call me Turtle.
I Only let a few people touch my braid... I only change that rule for some people
I love it when Baba calls me Alice. It makes me feel like Baba is my mom, the loving, caring mom I never had. I get kind of jittery when she talks about Rosalie because I don't know what do to. I do not know whether to comfort her or to insist that she has me now. I want to kick someone good and hard. That's the only way I can get out my anger. I can't cope with this, it makes me feel uncomfortable
