Character Role Analysis

Sean

As Frannie's older brother, it makes perfect sense that Sean would be the person that she sees as her mentor in life. While girls think that he's not that great because of he's deaf, Frannie thinks that Sean has even more to offer than an ordinary hearing boy. After all, he's the one who taught her how to communicate when she was a baby (through sign language), and he always calms her down when crazy stuff is going on, even helping her through her anxieties about her mama's new baby. That's what bros are for, and every time Frannie needs him, there Sean is.
