Morgan McCracken combats bullying by using his head instead of his fists. When this fails him, he runs. Why is he getting bullied? Partly because he's a redhead. Also, he's one of those 13-year-olds who has already developed facial hair.

Except, maybe, the girl across the street, Robin Reynolds....
