My favorite character in the book is Janner Wingfeather. A reason that Janner is my favorite character in the book is that he is like me in many ways. He is the oldest of the three Wingfeather children and he is always looking out for his siblings. Janner sometimes feels like he is weighed down by his siblings and that in his words “I don’t want to spend my life fretting over Tink and Leeli, following two little kids around fussing over them like an old woman and wasting my life!” I am the oldest of four siblings (and twelve cousins) and often feel as if they are a burden. I also am always being told to set a good example for my siblings and cousins and to play with them. This is one way I am similar to Janner and a reason that he is my favorite character in this book.

In A Raisin in the Sun, by Lorraine Hansberry, the Younger family is trying to achieve the American Dream, which is “the ideals of freedom, equality, and opportunity traditionally held to be available to every American”(cite dictionary.com). The Youngers are a black family living in a poor part of Chicago. They inherit ten thousand dollars because Mama’s husband died. Mama is the matriarch of the Younger family. Each family member has their own idea about how to use this money to fulfill their dreams, and the play uses the decisions of the family members and other characters to show the reader that people’s actions are not always motivated by what they appear to be. Mama wants to use the money to buy a house in a white neighborhood, because she thinks it is a better environment for her family than their current living conditions and will benefit her family. Although there are a number of people in A Raisin in the Sun who appear too want to help the Younger family, Mama shows through her decision to buy the house that she is the only person that is looking out for the best interests of her family.
