The thesis writer uses qualitative research method to examine the data in the novel. The thesis writer collects data that are related with the topic and the thesis writer analyzes them. The writer uses intrinsic approach to analyze the data of the novel. Intrinsic approach is the approach which deals with elements of literature such as plot, character, setting, theme, and point of view but in this case the writer only uses character to analyze the study. The thesis writer discusses Sammy’s character development in this thesis. Sammy’s character before Humphrey’s runaway is jealous, resentful, and cruel. Sammy’s bad character such as jealous, resentful, and cruel is caused by bad treatment and injustice of Sammy’s parents to him. Sammy’s parents only love, care, and admire Humphrey, Sammy’s younger brother because Humphrey could give popularity to his family and Humphrey is a famous pianist kid since he is five years old. Therefore, Sammy hates Humphrey and he often tortures Humphrey. The process of Sammy’s character development begins when Sammy fights Humphrey. He can not control his anger so he reveals the big secret about Humphrey’s career. It is washed up and the ghost of Lazlo Magyar is only a hoax. Humphrey is very shocked because that news breaks Humphrey’s self-confidence and Humphrey’s delight. After that Humphrey runs away from his family. Then, Sammy’s character develops. He regrets what he has done to Humphrey. Then he begins to be worried about Humphrey because he is aware that he does big mistake of hurting Humphrey and he just realizes that Humphrey is the only person he loves in the world. In conclusion, this thesis writer finds that Sammy’s character development comes from his regret of his mistake to Humphrey and his awareness of his love to Humphrey. Sammy’s resent, jealousy, and cruelty develop into love, regret, and worry.
