--wants to have blue eye's because she beleives that they would make her beautiful, like the "white" people with them. She is more of a loner because there is not really a person in her life that she can trust with anything.
Claudia Macteer- 9 yrs. old african american
--Unlike pecola, she feels that african americans are beautiful the way they are and that the average "white" person with blue eyes is not as appealing as others make it seem. She is a charcter that I like because she speaks her mind, and she does not take anything from anybody.
Cholly Breddlove- The father of pecola who takes out his anger using his hands to hurt his kid and wife. Although he does this he still loves them both.
Pauline Breedlove- Pecola's mother who like her daughter thinks she is ugly, and keeps to herself. Who has a broken marriage that she doesn't want or even need to be in, but through it all she finds her love in watching other "white" families and in love movies that she always watches. Imagining herself in these thing's I think are the key things that keep her moving.
