Lennie was a very interesting character in "Of Mice and Men" by John Steinbeck. He travels with his friend George. They travel because Lennie gets into trouble so they have to leave town. Lennie and George are together because Lennie's aunt died, and George took responsibility for him.

One of Lennie's many traits is his forgetfulness. He easily forgets what he is supposed to do, but he somehow never forgets what he is told. This trait is very unique.

An example of how Lennie is forgetful is when he has the mice in his pocket and when he went to pet them they bit his finger. When they bit him he pinched them, and by doing that he crushed their heads. He knew that if he squeezed their heads they would die, but since he is forgetful, he squeezed anyway.
