Playing Beatie Bow

Our thoughts on ‘Abigail’ (aka Lynette Kirk) after reading the first few pages…

·    different from the crowd

·    thin, shapeless, skinny

·    boring, plain

·    outsider

·    introvert

·    unattractive

·    mysterious

·    lonely

·    low self-esteem

·    self-contained,

·    doesn’t worry about others’ influences

·    hurt by her dad’s actions so changed her name from her given one
