Question

compare and contrast the characters of Mrs packletide and loona bimberton

Answer 1

Both the women received fame. Mrs. Packletide killed a tiger and Loona an Algerian Aviator. They both were very proud and talked about nothing else than their accomplishments. But the fact was Loona was never guided by the feelings of jealousy against anyone whereas Mrs. Packletide disliked Loona. When Loona was becoming popular for her adventure, Mrs. Packletide decided to kill a tiger in order to outdo Loona.
The party that was organised in the honour of Loona converted into her humiliation. She soon understood Mrs. Packletide's intention and was embarrassed. Loona never thought of teasing Mrs. Packletide which the latter did in the party. She hurt Loona's self esteem and pride by showing off her talent of killing a tiger.....
