Below, there is an attempt to write a description about the main character, Gordie LaChance (please, correct my mistakes):

Every member of this gang seems to have an emotional burden. Gordie LaChance is the main character who has writing skills. However, he faces the recent death of his brother – a successful football player and a beloved son.

Being aware of his father parental preferences and disappointments, Gordie struggles with low self-esteem in spite of being talented. Nevertheless, he’s the most balanced of the small gang which engages in an outrageous adventure in which the four boys experience the peak of the true fellowship in their lives.
