Jessica Wakefield
Jessica Wakefield is what you would call the "life of the party". One way to tell her from Elizabeth is to see who's wearing a watch. Jessica would never wear a watch. In her opinion, nothing starts until she's there. Jessica has always considered herself to be pretty and popular. In middle school, she belonged to an exclusive club called The Unicorn Club. The Unicorn Club considered themselves to be the prettiest and popular girls in the school. Jessica loves cheerleading and playing tennis.
Elizabeth Wakefield
Elizabeth Wakefield would much rather curl up with a good book than go to a party. Her idea of "fun" doesn't exactly match her sister's. She has always worked on her school's newspaper. In middle school, she worked on the Sixers, which she helped form. In junior high, she worked on the Spectator. In high school, she worked on the Oracle. Elizabeth loves reading, and has always wanted to be a writer. Elizabeth is a great listener, and is a great friend. She always gives people the benefit of the doubt. She dresses much more conservitevely than Jessica.
Lila Fowler is the daughter of George Fowler, one of the richest men in Sweet Valley. Lila's main concern in life is status and image. She's one of the biggest snobs at Sweet Valley High. She has little patience for those who don't measure up to her standards. It's one of the reasons she and Jessica are such good friends. Elizabeth has never liked Lila. The truth about Lila, though, is that she's very insecure. Although she has a sleek, sophisticated image, she feels unloved and neglected. Her parents have always given her anything she wanted - except their attention. Now that they're divorced, Lila lives with her father, who travels a lot of the time. To make up for things, George Fowler spoils his daughter, by giving her practically everything, regardless of it's cost.
