In Abomination by Robert Swindells, a character important to the text as a whole is Martha. Throughout the text, Martha becomes more confident by making friends with Scott, standing up for herself against the bullies at her school and rebelling against her parents.
One way that we see the character of Martha change in the text is when she makes friends with Scott. Before Scott started at her school, Martha had no friends and felt sad and isolated by her peers. Her classmates didn’t want to work with her, they moved away from her seat and wouldn’t share their equipment with her. When Scott arrived, Martha hoped she might finally have someone to connect with. Luckily, Scott became her friend and Martha was able to open up and share with him about the abuse she was suffering at school and at home. This leads to Scott finding out about abomination- her nephew- living in the basement. This friendship is important to the text as a whole because if Martha hadn’t met Scott she wouldn’t have grown the confidence to stand up to her family and tell the secret of Abomination. Another way that her newly found confidence from Scott will help Martha is when she decides to stand up to the bullies at school.

Another way we see Martha standing up to her bullies is when she Insults Tracey Stamper calling her ugly,
I find the reason that happened was because of the time Martha spent with Scott, Without Scott in the Text then Martha wouldn't have changed for the better leaving her as the hopeless girl she used to be.
