The Mysterious Benedict Society by Trenton Lee Stewart

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 like to know more about Number Two's early life. I would like to learn more about her early life because she is just seen as a hungry woman who helps Mr. Benedict and passes out quizzes. That is not such a big role. I have many questions about her. How old is she? Did her family die? Does she like being called "Number Two?" If I were to write a book about her, I would call it "The Early Days of Ms. 'Number Two.'" I wonder if she had trauma in her past. Is there enemies after her? Was her family kind? Is she a skilled fighter? I wonder if she ever journeys far from Mr. Benedict. All in all, The Mysterious Benedict Society is a great book. It has tons of action and baffling mysteries. I savored the entire book so I had to write more than one blog post about it.
