- The Westing Game - Characterization By: Kayla Wilson
- Don't touch my hair!! STOP!!
- Haha
- Okay, gosh.
- DON'T TOUCH MY BRAIDS!!
- The name of the story is "The Westing Game" By Ellen Raskin and the character is named Turtle Wexler. Here is evidence of first mentioning her, "They faced north, gaping like statues cast in the moment of discovery, until Turtle Wexler, her kite tail of a braid flying behind her," (Raskin 6).
- One physical description is her 2 braids that people like to pull and when they do she kicks them. Here is one quote to explain what I mean, "her kite tail of a braid flying behind her," (Raskin 96). I chose this quote because this explains how Turtle's hair flies while she rides on her bicycle.
- Turtle - tomboy-ish Angela-responsible
- The strongest personality trait is tough because she likes to kick anyone who touches her braids. Here is one quote to explain what I mean, "Touch her precious pigtail, even by accident, and she'll kick you in the shins, the brat." (Raskin 7). I chose this quote because it shows what will happen if someone touches Turtle's braids.
- This is a grown-up Turtle
- In the beginning, Turtle was soft and she seemed nice. One quote from the book is "raced her bicycle into the driveway." (Raskin 6). I chose this quote because it seems that she is not giving any danger to others and she is just being a normal child.
- In the middle, I guess Turtle feels disappointed because she is not like her older sister, Angela. One quote from the book is "How neatly she did everything, the perfect child, not Turtle," (Raskin 95). I chose this quote because this explains how Turtle is not like her sister, Turtle is more tomboy-ish.
- In the end, Turtle is more stronger, she talks in more of a stronger manner. One quote from the book is "come now, Ms. Pulaski," (Raskin 165). I chose this quote because kids don't usually say "come now" to an adult.
