Josiah (kenjenningsjeopardy74) I've made a list in the past. Let me see if I can find it... Here we go. This isn't in order.

1. Alex Frankovitch (from Skinnybones and Almost Starring Skinnybones by Barbara Park).

2. Junie B. Jones (from the series by Barbara Park).

3. Joe Bunch (from Totally Joe and other books by James Howe).

4. Lionel "Maniac" Magee (from Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli).

5. Stargirl Caraway (from Stargirl and Love, Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli).

6. Charlotte A. Cavattica (from Charlotte's Web by E.B. White).

7. Mick Harte (from Mick Harte Was Here by Barbara Park).

8. Louis the Trumpeter Swan (from The Trumpet of the Swan by E.B. White).

9. Onion John (from the Newbery Medal-winning Onion John by Joseph Krumgold).

10. Tom Fitzgerald, aka The Great Brain (from John D. Fitzgerald's The Great Brain series).

11. Georgie Burgess (from The Lottery Rose by Irene Hunt).

12. Sam McQueen (from the heartrending Ways To Live Forever by Sally Nicholls).

13. Billy Deep (from Deep Trouble and its sequels by R.L. Stine).

14. Otis Spofford (mostly from Otis Spofford by Beverly Cleary).

15. Samson Beaumont (from Savvy by Ingrid Law).

16. Jack Will (from the life-changing Wonder by R.J. Palacio).

These are only the characters who affected me much more powerfully than most, the absolute cream of the crop. There isn't anyone on this list who isn't very special to me.
