Answer 2

The protagonist of “The Lumber Room,” Nicholas is a young and mischievous boy who lives with three other children—his younger brother, his girl-cousin, and his boy-cousin—and his cousins’ aunt. He often clashes with the aunt, who is a strict and unpleasant guardian to the children. Nicholas doesn’t seem particularly attached to the other children he lives with, dismissing his younger brother as “boring” and finding it amusing when his girl-cousin scrapes her knee and cries. While the other children must also endure the aunt’s rules and punishments, they don’t seem to actively rebel against her like Nicholas does, perhaps because he feels injustices more keenly than they do and is bolder than they are. He also doesn’t invite any of these children to join in his scheme to enter the lumber room, saving it for a day when he can carry out his plan alone. The aunt has forbidden the children from entering this room, but Nicholas has a carefully constructed plan to do just that. He has accounted for every detail in his plan, right from getting the other children and aunt out of the way to practicing how to turn a key in a lock, all of which are evidence of his meticulousness and intelligence. He has an impressive imagination that lets him construct worlds out of the pictures and household objects he finds in the lumber room, such as the tapestry. Nicholas is also a careful observer and accurately anticipates how the aunt will react to certain situations. He uses his understanding of her nature to manipulate her and to show her to be a liar and hypocrite. A charming troublemaker, Nicholas disrupts an old, dusty order with his creativity and wit.
