The character from the lord of the flies that I admire most is Piggy.
There had been countless times where I have been pushed to the point of giving up, but every single time I have had a way to escape, whether that was putting it off, making excuses or letting someone else do it, but in Piggy’s situation he had nowhere to run from his problem but he still powered through.

Then, he gets stranded on an Island with a bunch of boys who bully him, but Piggy doesn’t let that get him down. He always looks on the bright side of things, like the fact that he has his auntie, or the fact the at they will eventually be rescued. I admire that trait that Piggy
