272 Words2 Pages
In the story Maniac Magee, Jerry Spinelli (the author) had created a character, Amanda. I know, from the story that Amanda is high handed because of her actions. First of all, I understand how Amanda is high handed where when she was yelling at Maniac. He wanted to leave and run because someone said something that hurt Maniac inside. She was being very high handed because she told him that what a random guy said was not true and she wanted him to stay. The person who hurt Maniac said to go back to his own kind white boy. Another example that Amanda was high handed is when she was down to school and Maniac can out and want to have a book. Amanda was in a rush to get to school and Maniac was keeping her from getting there on time.
