Charater Analysis for Eleanor
Doesn't want to make friends or talk to anyone; First day of school getting on the bus, didn't sit down just stood in the isle like waiting for someone to tell her to take a seat.
Trait 2: No confidence
Doesn't think anyone likes her because she doesn't like herself; Wears baggy clothes and doesn't put any care into what she looks like.
Quote:
"Big and awkward with crazy hair, bright red on top of curly, and she was dressed like... like she wanted people to look at her. Or mayber she didn't get what a mess she was. She had on a plaid shirt, a man's shirt, with half of dozen weird necklaces hanging around her neck and scarves wrapped around her wrists. She reminded Park of a scarecrow or one of the trouble dolls his mom kept on her dresser. Like something that wouldn't survive in the wild."
