What do you guys think about Kit so far? What can we tell about her character? Make sure you back up your answer with evidence from the novel (include page numbers).

So far I think Kit is not that bad of a person. I mean at some parts she can be lazy and bratty like on p.48 when she got all mad just because because the work was a liitle hard. But I also think she has a nice side because on p.40 Kit trys to give Mercy and Judith a dress and gloves. So overall she's not so bad of a person.
I don't like Kit very much so far. She's okay, I guess but it annoys me how she's kind of cluless to other people's feelings. Whenever someone gets mad at her, she doesn't know what she did wrong. She also seems spoiled because she has a lot of clothes ( seven trunks) and is used to having slaves around to take care of things for her. She's not very good at doing work.
I think Kit is a very kind british girl. I can tell she is like nice, not shy, and she talks a lot. on page 25 john hollbrookaskes her what kind of books she reads and she answers "poetry, history, and plays."
I THINK KIT IS A LITTLE SPOILED. BUT I ALSO THINK SHE HAS GOOD INTENTIONS. SHE HAS MANY CLOTHS WHEN SOME PEOPLE HAVE ONE. SHE DOES GO INTO THE WATER TO SAVE THE GIRLS DOLL.
I think Kit is poor but is still thankful and is like anyother kid on page 35 it says she has her grampas toys instead of having her own because she is poor and it seems she has hand me down clothes.
I THINK KIT IS A LITTLE SPOILED. BUT I ALSO THINK SHE HAS GOOD INTENTIONS. SHE HAS MANY CLOTHS WHEN SOME PEOPLE HAVE ONE. SHE DOES GO INTO THE WATER TO SAVE THE GIRLS DOLL.
I think that kit is spoiled, and is going to have a rough time in Conneticut because her aunt and uncle were very surprised that she had seven bags of luggage.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Morgan~Ritcher~~~~~ i think kit is very very nice. she recude a doll for a little girl. she does stuff to the family that matthew woods does nolt like! but she didn't mean to be mean..
i think Kit is nice for a rice girl. i think she's nice because she saved the little girl's doll from the sinking in the river. Even if she was called a witch by the little girl's mom.
WHAT I THINK OF KIT? Well im not sure she is A SPOILED LIL RICH GIRL BUT... NOTHIN REALLY REALY BAD HAPPIED YET SO MAYBE AT THE END OF THE BOOK I MIGHT LIKE HER MORE...
HEY MRS.SMiTH! i THiNK KiT iS THOUGHTFUL BECAUSE SHE CARES ABOUT PRUDENCE PAGE 16-SHE COULDNT GET PRUDENCE OUT OF HER HEAD SHE SOMETiMES SAW THE FATHER FURTiVLY SLiP THE CHiLD AN EXTRA MORSEL OF FOOD FROM HiS PLATE BUT HE WAS TOO SPINESLESS TO STAND UP TO HiS WiFEE

I think that Kit is nice and kind. She also is spoiled.I think she is spoiled becuase she is used to getting her way. We know she used to be so rich that on page 37 they said she had to sell her slave to go on the ship. She had a slave! Also she had 7 trunks of clothes on page 38. She was really spoiled
I like Kit. i dont think she is very much like me though. i think she can be a whole lot of different moods like on page 29 it seemed like her spirit went down and then came back up a little bit.
I think kit is a nice girl and she needs to learn that she needsto change to ake a good first inpression on the people that thinks she is a whitch.like on page 10 she could swim and people think she is awitch
I think she is okay but to me she is a little big snobby or like think she is slighty better than everybody else. It was kinda stupid to not let your auntie know but hey that's her.
i THiNK KiT iS COOL AND AT THE SAME TiME SHE iSN'T!! i THiNK JUST BECAUSE SHE HAS SO MANY CLOTHES SHE iSN'T SPOiLED... i ALSO THiNK THAT SHE ONLY CARES ABOUT HER AND NOT OTHER PEOPLE...
I think that Kit doesn't really care what people think... she seems like she has spunk... Even though she has a lot of clothes and things she doesn't seem spoiled. You can tell shes polite but she isn't afraid to stand up for herslef!
Well let's just say if I were a guy I would try to avoid her. But if she still had money I would be all over her! If I was a guy. But that's just me. So what do you think?
I think that Kit is sort of spoiled but you can also tell thatshe cares alot about other people. I also think that she is not the kind of person that is too serious, just really playful and happy in her own skin.
i think kit has good intentions, but some times she thinks that only she is right. she was rich so she dousnt really have a clue aobut the eolrd but i think she has a good heart over-all. becuase she didnt know its a bad thing to know how to swim, she was just trying to help a little girl gat her doll back. from:jessica ambrose
you can tell Kit is sort of spoiled because she has lots of cloths and used to own a slave. you can also tel she's outgoing and uncomfartable in her new home.
I think Kit is a rich person and is vey spoiled. She is a nice person, but you can tell she spoiled because she has 7 trunks and everyone else is quite poor (pg. 38.)

I think that kit is used to high class people but then when ever she moves to Weathersfield she's surprised because everybody is so low class and she even asked her aunt, "Where is your servant?"
I think that Kit is a nice person but she's to spoiled because she got mad at all the hard work on p.48.I think she is nice because on page 40 she tries to give Mercy and Judith some of her fancy clothes.
I think Kit has her own ideas about things. I think she has a bad temper though I don't think Kit is that spoiled because she tried to share her clothes with Judith and Mercy on page 40

Kit is a poor, but richy girl. She has the best clothing but then she doesn't have a house to live in. Thats what I think about her.
