Protagonist

Character Role Analysis

Will Henry

Will Henry is clearly our protagonist because he's the guy we are rooting for. We know he's going to make it through his ordeals (after all, we're reading his journals that were written when he reached the ripe old age of 131), but we still worry anxiously for him as he's in the heat of battle. He is just twelve-years-old, after all, and fighting terrifying beasts.
