Circus Mirandus by Cassie Beasley

Which minor character in this book would you like to know more about? If there were a whole book about them, what would it be called?
I would want to hear more about Aunt Gertrude. I would want to hear more about her because I wonder what her perspective is. What made her so grumpy? Is there something in her past which makes her upset most of the time? If I were to make a story about her, I would call it: "The Story of Grumpy Great Aunt Gertrude." The book seems to just make her seem mean and tell nothing about why she is so mean. Did she have a near death experience? Or is just her old age getting to her? I would really like to know more about Aunt Gertrude.
