Main Character Sketch-There's a Boy in the Girl's Bathroom

Bradley Chalkers is the main character in the book “There is a Boy in the Girl’s Bathroom.” He looks like the oldest and toughest kid in the 5th grade. The book says that Bradley looks like a good spitter.

His strengths are that he bullies people including the teacher,he lies to everybody,and accuses people of lying. His weaknesses are that he doesn’t have many friends. He likes to bully people and lies to people. He dislikes when Jeff says “hi” back to the girls who like him.

Other's feelings toward him are they say he’s scary, they think he is ugly, a bully and very weird. His dad thinks that when he is older he will be a criminal in jail. His feelings to other people are that he thinks that people that stand up to him are mean and liars.

He wants people to hate him. He also wants Jeff to not say hi to the girls that say hi to him. He needs to do his homework more often. He also needs to see the counselor. He also wants to beat up the girls who say “hi” to Jeff.

We think if Jeff gets new friends, Bradley will go to the counselor and she will talk to him and make him think that it is okay that Jeff has new friends. We think that he will accomplish being nice to everybody including his parents near the end of the book.

Do you remember when Officer Scott and Mrs. Porelle said that bullys often bully because they want others to feel the way they feel about themselves? From your insightful and detailed description, Bradley sounds like that kind of kid. What do you think? Might Bradley be hurting others' feelings because he's afraid they might hurt his if he were to be nice to them?

Hi Jack ,Josh and Jordan , I think you guys should not start almost all the sentences with he or his so just work on that.
