She is loyal and protective of the boys despite their flaws. Tommo Peaceful: The main character, and the youngest of the three brothers. The whole book is written from his memories and his ideas. You are looking through Tommo’s eyes throughout the whole book, watching him grow, love and suffer. He is slightly shy. He follows his brother, Charlie off to war. Big Joe Peaceful: One of Tommo’s brothers, he is mentally damaged after having caught meningitis a few days after he was born. You see him as a loveable child even though he is the eldest; Tommo’s life revolves around him at home as what him and Charlie thought of people depended on how they treated their brother. His habit of singing oranges and lemons at the top of his voice would make the most stoic reader smile. He’s big, he’s gentle, he’s kind and more than anything he’s happy… Charlie Peaceful: The middle child, but as far as the main plot goes he is treated as the eldest. I think Michael Morpurgo can describe him far better than I ever could so I’ll give you a quote from the book: ‘It’s Charlie who keeps us together, breaks up our squabbles…and jollies each of us along when we get downhearted. He’s become like a big brother
