What are some words to describe Kit from The Witch of Blackbird Pond?

Katharine
Tyler, or "Kit," is the sixteen year-old heroine of 's . She is
best described as fiercely independent, intelligent, and curious... perhaps even a little too
curious for her own good! After sailing to Wethersfield, Connecticut, from her home in Barbados,
Kit finds herself to be a bit of a "fish out of water" in this new and strange land.
She is not used to the customs of a Puritanical society and her lavish lifestyle and attitudes
are not received well in a settlement that is predicated on humility and hard work. It takes
awhile for Kit to acclimate to the routines of Wethersfield, and even after she does, her
curiosity about the world, rebellious nature, and cheeky spirit often get her into loads of
trouble!
