Biography
Elena is Ezekiel Zick's Italian 12-year-old best friend (age 10 in the comic book series). She helps him in their adventures. She adores cats and the world of invisible monsters.

She gains the gift of 'Sight' (ability to see and keep monsters in their houses) by Greta Barrymore - Zick's mother. Elena is a tomboy, and she gets really mad when Zick takes her for granted.

Famous quotes containing the word biography:
“Had Dr. Johnson written his own life, in conformity with the opinion which he has given, that every man’s life may be best written by himself; had he employed in the preservation of his own history, that clearness of narration and elegance of language in which he has embalmed so many eminent persons, the world would probably have had the most perfect example of biography that was ever exhibited.”
—James Boswell (1740–95)
“A great biography should, like the close of a great drama, leave behind it a feeling of serenity. We collect into a small bunch the flowers, the few flowers, which brought sweetness into a life, and present it as an offering to an accomplished destiny. It is the dying refrain of a completed song, the final verse of a finished poem.”
—André Maurois (1885–1967)
“Just how difficult it is to write biography can be reckoned by anybody who sits down and considers just how many people know the real truth about his or her love affairs.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
