I can only give my view on it
First off what was the point of mentioning Characters like Tubbs if that was the only chapter he was apart of?
I think the author wanted to give you an idea, that he is more than just the chubby kid, he is a boy. Later on Obie tells him about how is girlfriend is using him, she doesn't like him at all, she just wants things from him.
There are some more characters who are given names, the author is writing how the chocolate sale and Vigils are effecting their lives.
Ellen Barrett in Beyond The Chocolate War-and if not what was the point of her character?
Just showing that Jerry wanted to talk to a girl, that he constantly saw.
she smiled at him, and when he called, he hung up.
Did Jerry die at the end of The Chocolate War?
No lol
If you read both books, you see that he is very much alive.
This is A Sig
