Example of Character Sketcher for Jack

Character Traits

1.  Caring  p. 41  paragraph 3

"Annie?" called Jack.  "Jack!" "Jack!" called Annie.  "Where are you?"  "Here!"  Jack hurried in the direction of Annie's voice. 

This sentence shows that Jack was concerned about his sister, and rushed to find her.

 

2.  Reassuring  p. 45  paragraph 4

"Where's the monkey?"  said Annie, looking back at the forest.  "Do you think the jaguar caught him?"  "No monkeys are fast," said Jack.  Of course, jaguars are fast, too, Jack thought.  But he didn't want to tell Annie that.

This shows that Jack is willing to reassure Annie of the situation even though the worst may have happened.

 

3.  Likes to Learn  p. 52 paragraph 3

"I have to write some notes about the rain forest," said Jack.  "You find the Pennsylvania book."

This shows that Jack wants to write down what he has experienced and  learned about the rainforest.

 

Character's Goal:

Jack has to find the "thing" that Morgan needs to break her from the spell that she is under.

 

Characters Problem:

Jack and Annie do not know what this "thing" is so they do not know where to start looking for it.  Also there are all these strange animals that they come across, and wined up needing the help of a monkey.

 

Solution or Possible Solution:

To ask for help from a guide or someone that knows something about the rainforest.
