In the book, Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli it shows that popularity does not matter when Stargirl was cheering for the other team even though everyone hated it. What is happening in the quote is Stargirl is being really nice and friendly to the other team, While everyone else does not like what she is doing. “Dribble Dribble sis Boom Boom we don't bite we don't nibble we just say howwww-dee friends were the electrons who are yyyyyyou?” The quote supports the theme because it shows Stargirl singing

In the novel Jubilee, the character Vyry is displayed as a virtuous woman. In fact, this one character exemplifies the spirit of the African American woman.

Through the common stories humans hear from birth, it becomes an assumption that the main character of the story is the name that appears most often in the text. This is just a poor example of imprinting that so often misleads humans, they simply follow basic patterns and never stray from the path. Nathaniel Hawthorne was not the average human though, he strayed from the path. In his novel The Scarlet Letter, he demonstrates that the main character, in this case Pearl, does not even have to be in a large portion of the book. Everything that occurs in the story is due to Pearl, all the events occur because of Pearl, thus demonstrating the book is written around her existence, that is what determines a main character, who effects and controls the story the most, which is often mistaken as the main focal point.
