Examples include Little Women, The Catcher in the Rye, and The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Some win awards, such as Sharon Creech's witty and warm Walk Two Moons, whose heroine Salamanca Hiddle takes a physical and psychological road‐trip in search of her mother. Others appeal more to adults such as Sue Townsend's The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13¾, whose bittersweet humour delighted grown‐ups reading about a childhood even more awkward than their own. All involve an author creating a memorable lead character who is formed or transformed during the narrative.
