Tracy, the main character
of “Thirteen”, and Adrian Mole are very different examples of teenagers. But
they also have a lot in common: I think these two people are the same age, they
both have unstructured families and they have got low self-esteem.
But the difference is the
way that they try to improve their lives. Tracy looks at a popular girl in her
high school, Evie Zamora, and she sees in her the way that she wants to be.
Tracy becomes her best friend and she copies her life style. And on the other
hand, Adrian Mole doesn't do anything radical and writes a personal diary to
express his feelings, he only try to be happy on his way.
In terms of friendship, in adolescence
there are always problems with friends and sometimes the person who you have
more confidence is the person who fails you. In “Thirteen” is the main
character, Tracy, who fails her best and real friends; but in “the secret diary
of Adrian Mole” is his best friend, Nigel, who fails him.
