Role of Character Sketcher
Miss Annabelle Cole
Traits: Annabelle is snooty, and mean towards her sister (p22, par1).  For example, "'Oh, don't mind her," she said in a bossy way, "she is a little bit of a thing, we call her Bitsy.'"  The author portrays her as being a snob as well, "'Oh you're father is shop owner!'"(p27, par.3).
Character Goals:  To be a posh woman of England.
Problem:  She is too confident and rude, but will probably succeed.
Solution:  She studies hard, and kisses up to the teacher.
