Minor Character

The most intriguing minor character in A Gracious Plenty, I believe, is Reba Baker. She played a very important part in the book, demonstrating a very dynamic person. It added to the story, because I believe A Gracious Plenty, altogether, conveyed a feeling of hope in every person and situation. Reba Baker developed as a better person and came around full circle in the end of the novel. Overall, she showed that, although it is commonly said that "it is impossible for a person to change," Reynolds demonstrates through Reba Baker that it is infact possible.
