**John Peep:** John is Bo's older brother. He was very close to Bo and his family, working extra shifts to earn money to support them after his father walked out years before. He gave Bo a little black sheep stuffed animal that she loves. He worked so hard that he passed away in his sleep.

**Olivia Peep:** Olivia is Bo's mother. They have a close relationship since her father walked out on their family years before. They come together as a family after Bo's brother John's death.

### **Friends**

**Mizzi Muffet:** Bo met Mizzi after hitting her in the face with a Volley Ball in gym class. Bo has the closest relationship with Mizzi out of all her friends. Mizzi often comes to her sports games to cheer her on and Bo looks to Mizzi for advice, especially after Humphrey's death. After John's death, it is Mizzi who uses one of her favors with the Spider King to save Bo from the Black Smoke attempting to take over her.

**Humphrey Dummigan:** Bo was very protective of Humphrey and often encouraged him to stand up for himself when he was bullied by other students. Before his death, Humphrey admitted that he would have liked to go on a date with her, and Bo responded by saying that they should. After his death, she questions Mizzi about whether she could have prevented his death by being a better friend, to which Mizzi tells her that she was a great friend and nothing could have been done.

**Linette Curran:** Lin and Bo are in the same circle of friends but interact very rarely with one another. When they do interact, their conflicting personalities often have them bickering. They are not very close.

**George Porcher:** They are in the same circle of friends, but they don't interact very often. Bo dislikes the way George treated Humphrey and often spoke her thoughts about that clearly when he was around.

## Nursery

"Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep,

And can't tell where to find them;

Leave them alone, and they'll come home,

Bringing their tails behind them.

Little Bo-Peep fell fast asleep,

And dreamt she heard them bleating;

But when she awoke, she found it a joke,

For they were still all fleeting.

Then up she took her little crook,

Determined for to find them;

She found them indeed, but it made her heart bleed,

For they'd left their tails behind them.

It happened one day, as Bo-Peep did stray

Into a meadow hard by,

There she espied their tails, side by side,

All hung on a tree to dry.

She heaved a sigh and wiped her eye,

And over the hillocks she raced;

And tried what she could, as a shepherdess should,

That each tail be properly placed."
