 Character Sketch of Ben
Ben is one of the main characters of the novel ‘Brother
In the Land’. He is the youngest in the lodge family, five
years old. He has an elder brother, Danny. Ben is a more
beloved one in his family, but Danny does not like him.
Danny thinks his brother is a mere incident. Ben is a fun
and energetic boy, as we can get this from when he
unintentionally broke the game boy while playing with
his best friend, Craig. Ben is like an apple of his parents.
We observed in the story that Ben is a very courageous
boy, as he dealt the nuclear attack and his mothers
death with very braveness. He is more brave and
courageous from his age.
 Character Sketch of Rhodes
Rhodes, one of the significant characters of the novel
‘Brother In the Land’. At the start of the story we got to
know that Rhodes is Danny’s PE teacher at school.
Danny does not like Rhodes. When there was nuclear
attack we got to know that Rhodes was an active
member of the MASADA group. But unfortunately at
the end he turns out to be selfish person who deceives
the MASADA. Rhodes was a good strategist as he told
the students how to deal with the nuclear attack. He is
a good leader of MASADA, he led a successful ambush
into the CDT.
