A Good Friend

Lucinda just moved and needs a friend. I think Ashley would be perfect (even if she wasn't perfect, it is better than nothing) friend.There different characteristics a friend should have.One characteristic is that the friend should be nice. In the story Ashley always said Hi to Lucinda. She also helped 
Lucinda find her even though it took more than an hour. I know this is an important characteristic in a friend because I have one friend who is really nice. Once at this big convention called R.I.S. I lost my jacket. My friend walked with me until I found it. Another characteristic for a friend is to not be rude. When Lucinda was crying Ashley didn't make fun of her. Also when they were looking for the dog for a long time Ashley didn't ask when are we done. I have many friends that are not rude. Once when my dad told me to give flyers to the passerby and my friends could have walked away instead they helped me. Those are some characteristics of friends. As you see Ashley is perfect friend for Lucinda. 

What is a Good Friend?

In the story "Viva New Jersey" I think Lucinda should take Ashley as a friend. If you don't agree with me I will tell you a few examples so that you do. Before that I will tell you the characteristics a  friend should have. Then tell you how Ashley has those characteristics. One characteristic a good friend should have is to be friendly. You wouldn't want to have a friend who is grumpy always. I have a friend that is always happy and cheerful.  Another characteristic is to be caring. You would want to have a friend who would help you when you had a problem. Whenever I forgot something in my car or something she would always come with me to get it. Last but not least is that a good friend would be patient. My friend always stays with me when I am late for something.There are many other characteristics a good friend should have but it would take too long to name all of them. Now I will tell you how Ashley has those 3 characteristics.First of all she always says "Hi" to Lucinda whenever she see her. So that shows that she is friendly. Also Ashley wanted to help Lucinda when she lost her dog. She cared for her. Last of all she is patient because when they were looking for the dog Ashley didn't leave, even though they looked for over an hour. She was patient and kept on looking. I hope those examples made you know why Ashley is a good friend.

Would Ashley Make A Good Friend?

I think Ashley would make a good friend for Lucinda because she seems really nice and friendly.
She also doesn't have many friends, like Lucinda.  When Lucinda found Chauncey,  she thought of giving him to Ashley for her to take care of him because she had her own home and she just knew that she would be able to take good care of Chauncey.  Ashley and Lucinda have some things in common,  they both like books and they have similar hobbies.
