Along with the ability to manipulate fire, Emma has other defining personality traits that help her stand out. She is known as the protector of her fellow "peculiar" friends. She always tries to stay level-headed to make a plan that will get them out of tough situations. Emma is very passionate and is a very strong leader. She is known to persevere in the face of adversity and she pushes all of her "peculiar" friends to do the same.
One example of her willingness to keep pushing through tough times is found on page 107. People were trying to hunt her and her friends down, and things were looking very bleak. Emma went off to the side to have a moment to herself. She felt like there was no way her friends would ever get through the tribulation they were facing. She began to cry and feel sorry for herself. However, after a few moments, she recollected herself and went back to her friends. After they asked her what was wrong, she said, "Yes, yes... had something caught in my eye, was all. Now, everyone gather your things. We must go to London at once, and see about making Miss Peregrine whole again!" (Riggs, 107).
Although Emma felt hopeless, she realized she couldn't just give up. She had to keep trying to save her and her friends' lives. She pushed on and encouraged her friends to do the same. This is one moment that epitomizes Emma's personality.
