Biography

Early life

Not much is known about Ladonna before she came to Elwood City, except that she lived in Louisiana. She took a 16 hour drive from her home to Elwood City.

She states that she "once caught a crab as big as a pizza" in Louisiana.

Elwood City

Ladonna and her family later moved to Elwood City.[2] She met Arthur and D.W. when they visited her house, which is four houses down the block.

Physical appearance

Ladonna Compson is a rabbit with a tan complexion and brownish-red hair. She wears an olive green shirt, long blue jeans, and white sneakers. She is one of the taller of her classmates.

Alternate apparel

For the winter, she wears a orange winter jacket with black buttons and white lining and has a purple lined green, yellow and purple snow hat with a pair of purple and green snow gloves and a pair of black boots with white buckles. Also, she wears light purple pajamas to bed.

Personality

Ladonna is very outgoing and adventurous, and she loves to tell stories. She likes to take walks and explore Elwood City, although she's only been there for a short amount of time. However, she sometimes lacks confidence and doesn't think she's exciting or interesting, which caused her to lie about some parts of her life in Louisiana.

She loves exploring in the woods.

Favorite foods

She loves cake; her favorite is king cake. She eats so much that her father sometimes calls her a "garbage disposal with legs". She can't stand beets, however; even the sight of beets upsets her stomach.

Relationships

Friends

Ladonna gets along with most of the kids at Lakewood Elementary, even the Tough Customers, but many of her friends ignore her after she lies about her life like the bear story. However, Arthur managed to get them to accept her.
