Answer:
The main change of Squeaky's character over the course of "Raymond's Run" is on Squeaky's priorities and what matters the most to her.
Explanation:
Hazel Elizabeth Deborah Parker, also known as Squeaky, is the main character of "Raymond's Run" a short-story written by African-American author Toni Cade Bambara. Squeaky undergoes a main change in her attitude throughout the story. At the beginning, it is clear that all that Squeaky cares about is being the best runner possible and winning the race she is about to compete in. But once the race has begun, Squeaky suddenly thinks about her brother Raymond running next to her through the other side of the fence, and that imagination sparks a change in Squeaky's attitude. Suddenly she does not only care about winning races but she starts to think about others, and how, for example, she can help her own brother to become a runner and be successful. Although Squeaky is very pleased to be the winner of the race, she now knows that is not the only thing she cares about.
