Description of one of the main
characters: Crispin is Willoughby Scrope’s brother. He is kind,
honest and is fond of animals. He has a rest house in England away from the
city. He takes in paying guests. He is Jerry’s uncle.
Whom I like and why : I like Jerry West because he is
truthful and ready to help. He helps his uncle Bill (Willoughby Scrope) find
the miniature painting ‘THE GIRL IN BLUE’. Jerry West is a very good
cartoonist. Jerry’s full name is Gerald Godfrey Francis West (G.G.F.West). He signs his cartoons as Jerry.
Whom I dislike and Why: I dislike Vera Upshaw. She cries for everything. She always tries to get Jerry into trouble. She is an irritating character.

the 'Girl In Blue' in Duane Stottlemayer's room.
