PERSONALITY:
A rather quirky and odd 11 year old boy. He has a fascination for machinery, bugs and the feisty girl, Coraline Jones.He has a pet cat, which he claims is wild and feral, but feeds him sometimes it brings him little "dead things" to his window at night.Wybie is both Coraline's friend and bane in her new life in Ashland, Oregon. At first she thinks of him as the weird and annoying kid that he can sometimes be, but towards the end of the movie, Wybie proves himself to Coraline as a true friend and she learns to tolerate him. She may punch him in the arm from time to time, but it's a sign of friendship as opposed to anger.APPEARANCE:
Wybie Lovat has some African American roots. He has nappy dark brown hair, (that always have twigs and leaves in it), green eyes, and large ears that stick out from his head.He wears the same attire everywhere he goes: a black fire fighter's jacket, skeleton gloves, jeans, dirty, green sneakers, and a large and seemingly heavy skeleton mask with a revolving turret lens.He also has terrible posture. His neck and head always seem to be hunched over, probably because of the weight of his heavy mask.
PERSONALITY:Coraline Jones is an 11 year old girl with a large personality. Coraline is a feisty, tomboyish, rebellious, adventurous, curious, and creative girl for her age. She is a quick thinker and witty. She is often aggravated by rain, grown-ups, and people not taking her seriously because of her young age and outgoing demeanor. But her biggest pet peeve is people pronouncing her name wrong (they confuse it with Caroline). Coraline is also very skeptical of what adults tell her, especially her parents. There have been a lot of broken promises between them and she finds that she can't always confide in them, thinking that they probably won't listen to her anyway.
APPEARANCE:Coraline is a rather skinny girl with spindly legs. She has a blunt, blue haircut which she parts on the left side of her head. She has a round, wide, childish face with freckles on both sides of her cheeks (5 on both sides). Coraline has brown eyes, an extremely pointy nose (which she gets from her Mother), little pink lips, thin brown eye brows, and little ears that poke out from her blue hair.Coraline has blue fingernails, white, edgy teeth, and she wears a colorful dragonfly hair clip on the right side of her head, it shows her femininity considering she's kind of a tomboy.
Throughout the film, Coraline wears a number of clothing swatches. 9 to be exact.In the real world she is caught in her yellow raincoat and swampers (rain boots), a pink-stripped long-sleeved shirt, and blue jeans. She also wears a navy blue jacket, a navy hat, a pink/red skirt, green tights, and red sneakers when she goes into town with her parents. She also wants desperately a pair of colorful green and orange gloves.At bedtime, she jumps into her colorful orange polka-dotted pajamas and she holds a blue blanket while asleep in her bed.
In the Other World, Coraline is seen for a good number of scenes, in her classic dark gray star sweater, black slacks, and bright blue ankle boots.When Coraline goes back to the Other World to face the Other Mother, she "gears up" and accessorises her pajamas with a dark green/blue vest, red sneakers, navy hat, and magenta shoulder bag.Coraline's final outfit is the "Garden Party" outfit which consists of blue, knee cut overalls, a green t-shirt with pink trim, pink tights, colorful gloves, and blue sneakers.CORALINE'S VIEWS ON...
MOTHER (MEL) - Throughout most of the film, Coraline has a strained relationship with her Mother. People could agree with me when I say that they are almost too similar to get along. Coraline is wily, imaginative, and bright while Mel...is a mother. She has stress and responsibilities to own up to and doesn't have the same spirit as her young daughter does. But we can also assume that Mel was a lot like Coraline when she was younger. They already look alike and they 
have the same barbed attitude.
Being and young and a little bit naive, Coraline thinks her mother is awful. She thinks she isn't fun and is actually very boring. This move from Michigan to Oregon has sort of shaken the love between them, and it's taken some time to mend itself.
But when the Other Mother captures Coraline's parents, Coraline suddenly not only gains the courage to save them, but a realization of love and concern. She learns that she isn't anything without her mom and dad...and they're nothing without her. They may be a small one, but they're still a family.In the end of the film, we know that these two make amends when Coraline rescues her parents and when Mel buys Coraline her much desired colorful gloves. There's no hug or kiss to top it off, just a simple exchange of glances and a present. I guess we should be pleased enough that Coraline and her mother appear to have put the past behind them and learned to have some sort of mother/daughter relationship.
FATHER (CHARLIE) - Between Coraline's parents, Charlie is definitely more warm around his feisty, 
daughter than his wife. We see him as a caring, loving father, but with a ton of work to complete with Mel. Yet, somehow, he manages to shove that aside for a while and be a little playful around Coraline. He sings to her, cracks jokes, and even prepares meals for his family. He also talks to her more. He's the one that offers activities when she's bored.
Despite his desperateness to be cool and fun, he still is a little negligent. Coraline still thinks both her parents don't listen to her, and the truth is...they don't. Not well at least. But it's not their fault, they just have work to do and can't be shinning and loving every moment. But all Coraline asks for is a little attention, which shouldn't be too hard, but it's come to that.
Towards the end of the movie, the relationship between Coraline and her dad hasn't appeared to change too much. They still joke around and he still sings to her. The only difference is that he tucks her into bed for once in a possibly long time.
