Though it is fiction, I can relate to the character in Madeline Richards short story, "The Wolf." She was told all her life that something would get her if she turned around at a noise much like I was warned all my life my parents warned me there were people who would take me if I didn't pay attention. As she walks, she convinced herself there was something or someone following her. When I use to walk home from school, I thought every driver was going to kidnap me. I even related to the part when the narrator discribed the paw print at the end, every person on the road had the potential to be dangerous. Madeline can really write fiction many people can relate to.
