Character summary
stig: stig is a cave man who is a brilliant inventor. He lives down a chalk pit in the dump so people throw their rubbish down the chalk pit. Stig takes the other peoples rubbish and makes them into things for his home. This character really embodies the saying “one person’s trash is another’s treasure
Barney: barney is an adventurous child who, when he meets stig, is really happy because they go on lots of adventures together. Even though his relatives dont believe in stig, he does not let them convince him that stig is not real.
My favourite character is
Lou because she did not believe stig
was real until she saw him. I think this
means she is very intelligent.and she always takes care of their dog Dinah.
