I need to write a essay on a character in the novel that i am reading. Its has to be about her character traits. I am having problems on how to start it. Can u please give me some ideas. Thank you
Greetings!
It would help if I knew who the character was, and what types of traits she might have. Without that information, I'll have to give you some general pointers. You would start by mentioning the name of the character and the work in which she is found, giving a generalized summary of her traits, but saving the details for the following paragraphs. For example, "The character of Claire in the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon is a woman of great strength, depth and determination whose ability to adapt from life in the mid-twentieth century to that in the eighteenth is a testament to her fortitude." That's obviously too vague to tell you a lot about Claire, but it acts as an introduction to the topic which will then allow you to tell the reader more.
I hope this helps get you started!

You might start off with something like "In the novel, The Endless Steppe, the character of Esther is a young girl of remarkable bravery and strength, who must endure hardship, loss and the cruelty of a world which steals her childhood while teaching her valuable lessons about life."
I hope this helps!

In the novel, The Endless Steppe, the character of Esther is a young girl of remarkable bravery and strength, who must endure hardship, loss and the cruelty of a world which steals her childhood while teaching her valuable lessons about life. Esther, an eleven years old girl who has to work the whole day in a farm to survive makes her one of the strongest girl.After her family got the permisson to go and live in a small villiage, Esther got the permisson to start school. Unfortunatly, after her father was declared to work far away, she had even lost the previllage to go to school. Even in times when her parents broke down to the terrible things that occurred them, she never fell weak. She always had the strength to endure all circumstances around her and bring solutions to them. Childhood is one of the most pretigious time of ones life, in which one plays freedomly, eats enormously, and goes to school.The time that she should be spending studying, she works so her family does not have to starve. She tries to look for customers that need some sewing done, in return of that she gets bread, milk, and a little amount of meat if shes lucky.

You have a good start; here are some editing suggestions:
Esther, an eleven-year-old girl who has to work the whole day on a farm to survive, is one of the strongest girls imaginable.After her family received permission to go and live in a small village, Esther was able to start school. Unfortunately, after her father was sent to work far away, she lost the privilege of going to school. Even in times when her parents broke down because of the terrible things that happened to them, she never became weak. She always had the strength to endure all circumstances around her and bring solutions to them. The time that she should be spending studying, she works so her family does not have to starve. She tries to look for customers that need some sewing done; in return for that, she gets bread, milk, and a little amount of meat if she is lucky.
This is a good sentence, but is out of place where you have it: Childhood is one of the most precious times of life, in which one plays freely, eats enormously, and goes to school.
As you continue your writing, think about not only the things that happen to Esther, but of her reaction to them and what that says about her. The important thing is to get at the heart of the character, understand her motivations, her strengths and weaknesses (she must have some?) and whether she might be symbolic of other things. Look underneath, rather than just on top of the surface of the character.
I hope this helps!

Thank you for editting.
I made a mistake in the writting, After esthers father was declared to work out, she didnt lose the privillage to not go to school but to study freely, as she had lots of work to do. I need help on how can i put this in my writting
The strength of esther is her family, she thinks that if her family had been together then she can go throw anything but if not shell lose. Her weakness is also her family, as she fell weak for a moment when he learned that her father was declared to go away for work. When she thinks about the her family and how they are starving, she gets motivated to work harder so she can bread and butter for them. After her father, and does not even send letters back to her often and does not return for months,she got very upset but she did not express that to her mother or grandmother. she gave them courage that everything is fine father will come back
I need help in putting thses things about her into what i already starten, I have many more thingss about her that i want to add too but i just cant to start it. I dont how to start it. can u please help me in that. Thank You

Here are some suggestions and revisions:
Unfortunately, after her father was sent to work far away, Esther was not able to spend much time studying, as she had too much work to do.
Esther's strength is her family. She feels that if her family could stay together, she could go through anything, but worries that things will fall apart if her family does. Her greatest strength is also her weakness, though, because she cares so much for her family. She becomes weak for a moment when she learns that her father has to go away to work. When she thinks about her family and how they are starving, she gets motivated to work harder so she can buy bread and butter for them. After her father, goes awy and does not even send letters back to her often and does not return for months, she gets very upset but she does not express that to her mother or grandmother. She gives them courage that everything is fine and her father will come back.
I hope this helps!

You could start a new paragraph here: "Even in times when her parents broke down..."; also, here: "Esther's strength is her family."
Eather is a very skinny girl, she has long braided hair. Her skin colour is white. - You could say "Esther is a skinny girl with long, dark (blonde, red, whatever) hair she wears tightly braided, tied with old bits of yarn. Her skin is pale and her deep green eyes seem to big for her narrow face."
Just think about little details like that which you can add to make your writing more interesting.
I hope this helps!

She gives them courage that everything is fine and her father will come back soon.
In my opnion, Esther is a skinny girl with long, dark black hair she wears tightly braided, tied with old bits of yarn. Her skin is pale and her deep light brown eyes seem to big for her narrow face. She is not very tall or short just about perfect for an eleven years old girl. The way she talks is very gental. The way she presents herself front of people is very normal.
Childhood is one of the most precious times of life, in which one plays freely, eats enormously, and goes to school. Which gets stolen away from Esther. But still Esther tries to make herself happy of what she has. Overall, Esther is a very strong and brave girl.
Thank you

It's coming along well. I just have a few editing suggestions for you:
Her skin is pale and her deep-set, light brown eyes seem too big for her narrow face. She is neither very tall nor short, just about perfect for an eleven-year-old girl. The way she talks is very gentle. She presents herself to people in a very normal, balanced way.
Childhood is one of the most precious times of life, in which one plays freely, eats enormously, and goes to school. This was all stolen from Esther, but she still tries to make herself happy with what she has. Overall, Esther is a very strong and brave girl.
Good job!

Thank you Sarah,
I think my conclusion is too short. Can you please give me some suggestions on how can i make bigger.
Greetings!
You could add a sentence like "She overcame [list the things she overcame] to find her own inner strength and become a stronger, better person." You might want to put in your own adjectives (maybe something more specific than "better." I haven't read it, but since you have, you know her character better than I.
I hope this helps!
