(stage age 9). A 5th-grade boy who wants an Air Rifle for Christmas: specifically the Red Ryder Carbine Action BB Gun. He is a bright, winsome, mischievous, cute kid...someone you wouldn't mind having as a next-door neighbor. (He might shovel your driveway for you--and then use your shovel as a sled!) Not a smart-aleck or overly precocious, Ralphie's imagination drives several scenes.
(stage age 7). Ralphie's younger brother, he is cute, cuddly, lovable and whiny-- like most baby brothers! He looks up to his big brother, tries to keep up with him, and is young enough that he can be convinced to eat his dinner like a baby piggy!
(stage age 9/10) A classmate and best buddy of Ralphie; Schwartz becomes the scapegoat when Ralphie utters an unmentionable word.
(stage age 9/10) A classmate.
(stage age 9/10) A classmate.
(stage age 12/13) A textbook example of a schoolyard bully, Scut is loud, obnoxious, and intimidating. This truant is a year or two older than Ralphie and his friends and wears a perpetual scowl under his coonskin cap. He always appears at the most inopportune time to harass his victims. In the end, when he and his sidekick, Grover Dill, are bested, they show themselves to be the biggest cowards of all.
