Anyone who knows me will understand that I don't think of some of those boo k character's behaviors as negative -- rather they are unconventional!

Persistence, courage, determination, self-confidence, goal oriented, inquis itive, and creative are what come into to my mind. Of course, I was in tro uble all the time when I was an elementary student --- probably one of "tho

se characters!"

I always identified with Eloise and Pippi Longstocking so be sure to put th em on your list, Jeff. I would also add these titles by Katherine Hannigan --- True, sort of and

Ida B. Delly and Ida B. are definite "characters" with negative behaviors but posi tive attributes.

Please share a copy of your list with this list when it's complete. I can' t wait!!
