Do you have a favorite main character?

Today's host:Amanda Flower

When you finish reading a novel, are you ever sad to see the protagonist go? Does it feel like you’re saying good-bye to a good friend? Those are signs of well-crafted main characters, like the ones in our excerpts this week.

There are many protagonists whom I’ve met in my life who have felt like old friends, and I miss them at the end of the book.

Here are eight of my favorite protagonists and their characteristics which I found most endearing as a young reader and still admire to this day:

1. To Kill a Mockingbird- Scout Finch’s imagination

2. Pride and Prejudice- Elizabeth Bennet’s wit

3. Mouse and the Motorcycle- Ralph S. Mouse’s sense of adventure

4. Charlotte’s Web- Wilbur’s loyalty

5. The Baby Sitter Club Series- Kristy Thomas’s organization skills

6. Jane Eyre- Jane Eyre’s conscience

7. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe- Lucy Penvensie’s bravery

8. Mandie Series- Mandie Shaw’s crime solving skills


My question for you, who is your favorite protagonist?
