Lord Of The Flies

Prompt: Describe the main characters
Pages 1-32


The first character I am going to describe is the character Simon.  My first impression oh Simon is that he is a clumsy little kid who is always falling over.  I get this impression because when we are first introduced to him  he immediately falls face first into the sandy beach where I met him.  When we me his leader from his land, he explained that he was always falling everywhere they go.  Then when we get further into the book, another character brushes into him and he falls over completely.  And why I think he is a little kid, is because I get the impression because he is shorter than the other two and they he is treated like a little kid.

The next character I am going to describe is Jack.  When I first met Jack I thought he was going to be the bully of the story.  The reason I felt this way was because he had a dark cloak and was acting like he was superior to all the rest of the kids.  When he first appeared with Simon he was with a bunch of other kids and was acting as their leader.  Then their was a vote to decide who was going to be leader he lost.  

The final character I am going to describe is Ralph.  He was the one who was voted the leader instead of Jack.  He first appeared to be the one who was going to save them all.  A few pages in he finds a conch shell and blows in it to find all the other kids stuck on the island with him.  When he found them all he was voted the leader  and he Jack and Simon went on an expedition to see if they were stranded on the island.
