Great post. I will have to give it some thought to remember the first time I related to a character in a book. It might have been Charlotte’s Web, Gone With The Wind, Victoria Holt’s The Lynx, or Nancy Drew but it has been a long time.

Thanks, Juneta 🙂 I can’t remember if I ever saw myself in a book — but I do know that I always saw myself in Belle from the original Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast” since it came out 😉
