Roy is the protagonist of the story, and an everyman hero experiencing the stress of moving from a place he loved (Bozeman, Montana) to a place he knows nothing about and doesn’t much like. He’s out of place among the Florida crowd, and hasn’t really found his niche at school. However, his inherently kind and just nature leads him to Mullet Fingers and Beatrice, and his commitment to them and their cause of protecting the owls on the Mother Paula’s lot displays a truly good soul.

Mullet Fingers is in many ways, quite similar to Roy. He has Roy’s keen sense of justice (albeit, his is more extreme) and he has the same love for the wilder part of Coconut Cove that Roy had for Bozeman. He isn’t afraid to go to extremes for the preservation of his home state’s wilder places after his attempt at letter writing fails, and he’s willing to risk going to juvenile hall to stop the pancake house’s construction. He is what Roy could be without his measured sense of caution, an eco-warrior desperate to save the vulnerable plants and animals he holds so dear.

Beatrice Leep, or as she’s known by her classmates “Beatrice the Bear”, is Mullet Finge
