In "The Pigman" by Paul Zindel, Dennis and Norton are friends of the main characters, John and Lorraine. Dennis is characterized as a carefree and somewhat irresponsible teenager, while Norton is depicted as more aggressive and confrontational. Their interactions with John and Lorraine often highlight themes of peer pressure and the struggles of adolescence. Ultimately, they serve to contrast the deeper connections that John and Lorraine develop with the Pigman, an older man who becomes a significant figure in their lives.
