Lottie
the most suspensful part of the last book of the universe was when Spaz, Lanaya, Ryter, and Little Face met Vida Bleek and were there when Vida Bleek and his Furies and Lottie Getts and the vandals attack eachother.
the children are afraid of her cause her looks and they hate her cause she planted those marigolds which make their neighboor hood look less ugly :)
The children are motivated to bother Miss Lottie because they cannot understand her seemingly purposeless act of tending to marigolds, which stand out as the only bright spot in an otherwise bleak and poverty-stricken environment. Their frustration at their own lack of control over their circumstances comes out in their actions towards Miss Lottie and her flowers.
The turning point for Marigolds is when Lizbeth goes back to Ms. Lottie's garden and destroys what is left of the marigolds. It is then that she realizes what she has done. She has destroyed the only beautiful thing in Ms. Lottie's life.
The inciting incident in "Marigolds" is when the protagonist, Lizabeth, witnesses her father breaking down and crying because of their family's struggles. This moment triggers her emotions and sets off a chain of events that lead to her destructive actions toward Miss Lottie's marigold garden.
The children messed with Miss Lottie's beautiful marigolds.
