mark me as Brain least
Maddie was a very kind hearten girl. She did not like teasing others, even though she has joined other girls to tease Wanda. She was not a very confident girl, as she wanted to stop Peggy from her doings. She feared Peggy as she will be the next victim for her non-sense. But she was able to conquer her fears when Wanda left the school/ They collected the courage to went up to Wanda's house and apologize her for not taking the step to stop Peggy. She changed herself at the cost of her friendship with Peggy, so no other girl will have to face the teasing from her on poor dressing or unusual names.
