This is strange, but...well, exactly what it says on the tin. I often feel that people are too hard on the protagonists. Feel free to point out any protagonists or details I missed. I’m too lazy to list the books so just try to remember which books they’re from.

Margaret: She figured out who her real dad was with her intelligence by making a cut in his arm. Evan: He ate something he was terrified of, the monster blood, to save his bully. Plus, he mostly learned his lesson about not using monster blood in the sequels (except for the third book, but Kermit's such a nightmare that who can blame him). Billy Harlan: Do I even need to explain? Hannah: She saved Danny from the fire. Samantha: She felt guilty and showed concern for Judith when her wish resulted in her getting ill and even visited her, despite Judith's bullying of her. Billy Deep: He cared about the mermaid and disagreed with keeping her trapped, and went into the jellyfish to save Sheena in the second book. I think he did more in Creep from the Deep too. Skipper: He defeated the masked mutant with his intelligence, using his own weakness against him, and gave up comic books at the end of the book to play with his sister. Wendy: Like Skipper, she defeated King Jellyjam by using his own weakness against him. Mark: He went into the jungle unprotected to save his aunt. Ginger: She cleverly tricked one of the beasts into playing a game where they spun so she tagged him in the east. Ricky: He tried his hardest to save a group of people who had been nothing but cruel to him and was even willing to sacrifice his own humanity to save them by eating all the cookies before the ending. Zackie: He figured out he could defeat the blob Monster by thinking it away. Sarah: I actually compiled many quotes from the book regarding her that I can post if anyone asks. For now, I’ll just say she immediately forgave her bunkmates when they apologized for their treatment of her, even though last time it was just a trick to put a snake down her back. Naive? Maybe, but also rather forgiving. More prominently, she decided to return to camp next year to warn the next camper against being Della’s buddy, when she could have easily gone home and just tried to forget the horrible things she experienced. Wade: She actually felt guilty when she thought she accidentally deleted Micah from existence, despite his abusive behavior toward her.
