Leon Character Analysis

Read the original practice scene below. It is written for this worksheet and is not a quotation from a novel. Use details from the scene to explain what Leon says, thinks and does.

The Rainy Walk

Leon and his younger brother Jake were walking home when rain began to drum on the pavement. Jake clutched a paper bag to his chest. Inside was a small model boat he had made for a family celebration. A gust of wind tugged at the bag, and one handle tore. “It’s ruined,” Jake said, his voice wobbling. Leon caught the bag before it hit a puddle. He checked the boat carefully, then folded his own scarf around it. “The boat’s still fine,” he said. “Let’s take the sheltered path. We’ll get there a little later, but it’ll stay dry.” At the corner, Leon noticed an older neighbour struggling with two shopping bags. He paused. Jake looked at the darkening sky, then at his brother. Leon handed Jake the wrapped boat and helped the neighbour carry the bags to her gate. Jake followed, holding the boat close. When they finally reached the celebration, Jake set the boat on the table. Leon stood back while everyone admired it. Jake turned to him and said, “You saved it.” Leon smiled, a little embarrassed. “You made it,” he replied. “I just kept it safe.”
