the kid from secrets

The child, from the story “secrets” written by Bernard Maclaverty , was a child that likes listening his great aunt stories. He was  very polite because he always listen to his great aunt patiently and he was very respectful to her. Also he was disobedient because he didn’t pay attention to his  great aunt when she told  him not to read the secret letters. And other thing is that he was sensitive when at the end of the story, when his great aunt dies he felt sad because she  never forgave him of reading the letters of her secrets lovers.

“Before she died did she say anything?”
the sentence describes the kid was sad because the grate aunt didn`t say anything about forgave him about reading the secret letters. that because he read the secret letters he because he enjoied listening his great aunt stories.
If I have to compare him with some animal I will compare him with a turtle because it cannot talk to tell problems and secrets.
