Answer 1

i. Peggy justified her cruel behaviour towards Wanda by giving reasons such as she felt Wanda had lied about her dresses, she wasn’t an ordinary girl as she had a funny name and she believed that she was just having fun and didn’t mean any harm to her.

ii. Custard, who was always teased as being the cowardly one, by all others, stood up to fight with the pirate, while the others ran away to hide.
