| |
| ==Biography==
| |
| ===Life in Louisiana===
| |
| Before Ladonna came to [[Elwood City]], she lived in [[Louisiana]]. She states that she "once caught a [[crab]] as big as a [[pizza]]".{{Ep|Based on a True Story}} At her old school, she took a public speaking class and was pretty good at it.{{Ep|Speak Up, Francine!}} Once while playing [[pin the tail on the donkey]] at her neighbors' house, she walked blindfolded out the front door and pinned the tail on a real [[donkey]] owned by her neighbors. Luckily for her, it was not a real pin.{{Ep|Waiting for Snow}} Due to a tuna sandwich in her pocket (which she had forgotten about, since her jacket smelled funny anyway), she once found a cat that had been lost for seven weeks.{{Ep|Pets and Pests}}

| ===Elwood City===
| | '''Ladonna Compson''' is a girl from [[Louisiana]] who moved to [[Elwood City]]. She is currently a third grader in [[Nigel Ratburn|Mr. Ratburn]]'s class. She tells many interesting sto |
| Ladonna and her family drove for 16 hours on their move to Elwood City. She met [[Arthur Read|Arthur]] and [[D.W. Read|D.W.]] when they visited her new house, which is four houses down the block from theirs. She quickly became friends with her classmates due to her storytelling ability, and everyone wanted to hang out with her. Eventually, she ran out of stories to tell and was caught when she made up one. After showing [[Arthur Read|Arthur]] the details of a recent true story, she was able to regain her friends' trust.{{Ep|Based on a True Story}}
| |
| | |
| Ladonna helped [[Bud Compson|Bud]] and [[D.W. Read|D.W.]] understand the court system through a comic she was reading: [[Habeas Canine: Legal Beagle]]. She later served on the jury at the court trial of [[Compson vs. Tibble]].{{Ep|Read and Flumberghast}}
| |
| | |
| She later visited the [[Sugar Bowl]]{{Ep|Buster's Book Battle}} and watched the [[Lakewood Elementary School|school]]'s annual [[Arithmattack]] competition.{{Ep|Brain's Biggest Blunder}}
| |
| | |
| When [[Fern Walters|Fern]] couldn't think of any new ideas for [[Muffy's Fiction Forum]], Ladonna told her stories about her [[Aunt Mable]] and [[Uncle Silas]]. Fern copied the plots and changed the names, upsetting Ladonna. In response, Ladonna wrote a story about "[[Ferg]]" stealing "[[Ladella]]'s" stories, which made Fern realize her wrongdoing.{{Ep|Fern and the Case of the Stolen Story}} The two have since made up.
| |
| | |
| [[Muffy Crosswire|Muffy]] invited Ladonna to [[Crosswire Estate|her house]] for a potluck when [[Francine Frensky|Francine]] was attempting to be a vegetarian. While she did not technically bring meat, per Muffy's orders, Ladonna did bring a dish of collard greens which had been simmered in duck fat for 3 hours. She left in a hurry to "finish a book report".{{Ep|Sue Ellen Vegges Out}}
| |
| | |
| She attended [[The Wiegel-Bandolik Dog Show]] with her mother.{{Ep|Show Off}}
| |
| | |
| She and Arthur teamed up to make a shoebox diorama based on the expeditions of [[Annie Smith Peck]]. Ladonna convinced Bud and D.W. to explore the [[Reads' House|Reads' backyard]] so the two could leave their older siblings alone to work on the project, but her plan backfired when D.W. and Bud decided to camp overnight in the backyard. Due to becoming hooked on a [[Extreme Kite Flying|TV show]], Ladonna accidentally left Bud and D.W. unattended for most of the evening. Fortunately, they were still safe and sound when she and Arthur checked on them.{{Ep|Adventures in Budylon}}
| |
| | |
| In the fall, Ladonna planned to make a gourd person, pick apples, bake a pie, and rake leaves, all on the same day. Unfortunately, she had planned too many things at once and messed up most of her goals. The following day, she decided to ignore any previously-scheduled events so she could take a walk with Arthur.{{Ep|Ladonna Compson: Party Animal}}
| |
| | |
| Around [[Earth Day]], she helped train Francine to give a public speech. Eventually, she instead agreed to read Francine's speech for her. However, the papers were lost and Ladonna had not memorized the speech herself, so Francine presented her speech after all.{{Ep|Speak Up, Francine!}}
| |
| | |
| Near the end of winter, Ladonna bought skis and a sled in anticipation of a blizzard and lots of snow. However, there was not enough snow to cover the ground. Arthur and Buster tried to cheer her up with fake snow made of soap bubbles, but she saw through the trick right away. Though she appreciated the effort, it just was not the same. She checked the weather on [[WooHoo!|the internet]] and found it to be sunny for the next week. At long last, there was plenty of snow one day. Ladonna skied, sledded, and made snow angels.{{Ep|Waiting for Snow}}
| |
| | |
| When the Read family was dealing with a wild mouse loose in their house, Ladonna visited to show Arthur her pet albino rat, [[General Higgins]]. Seeing the general made D.W. change her mind about rodents.{{Ep|Pets and Pests}}
| |
| | |
| When she, Muffy, and [[Binky Barnes|Binky]] found a kite in the park, they took turns using it.{{Ep|Go Fly a Kite}}
| |
| | |
| Ladonna and Bud went with Arthur, D.W., and [[David Read|Mr. Read]] to [[Wonder World]] to ride the new roller coaster, [[The Buzzard]].{{Ep|D.W. & Bud's Higher Purpose}}
| |
| | |
| In January, Binky swiped Ladonna's [[pudding]] and gave it to [[George Lundgren|George]]. She did not seem to notice it was gone.{{Ep|Best Wishes}}
| |
| | |
| Ladonna had a solo in a school play, singing "[[Alice Blue Gown]]". She borrowed a fancy dress from Muffy for the musical but stained it with paint before she could use it. She wore a hand-me-down dress from home instead.{{Ep|Messy Dress Mess}}
| |
| | |
| When [[Hurricane Sadie]] caused the river to flood, Ladonna was concerned that [[Rufus Compson|her father]] would not be home in time for her birthday. He was able to make it to her surprise party after all.{{Ep|Shelter from the Storm}}
| |

| |
| | |
| When she imagined herself making a [[Gourd Person]], Ladonna wore a white lab coat and safety goggles over her normal clothes.
| |
| ==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. Sometimes when she becomes overexcited, she makes a high-pitched screech.
| |
| ===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 [[beet]]s, 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 Read|Arthur]] managed to get them to accept her.
