Following an unfortunate incident this morning when I spilled jam all over my dress, exactly the sort of thing The Bear With Sticky Paws would do, I started to wonder if we are in danger of becoming our characters. Or whether our characters are in fact us, thinly disguised. A brief Tweetette revealed that David Melling and Alex T Smith think that we do.

Here’s me, and my bunny Martha…

and the plot thickens, because here’s my Mum’s lovely Annie Rose, Alfie‘s little sister – different, of course, but a bit the same too?

Illustrators and like-minded folk, if you have likenesses to share – we could build up a very funny list!
