Really: nothing at all. :)
But! It appears that I might be introducing an eight year old girl as a character in one of my fiction universes, so, a question…
When you hear that phrase, “eight year old girl” (North American upper middle class, that is), what traits come to mind? What’s big in that section of the kid world? Are there certain things (cognitively, emotionally, etc) that a child that age would be likely to be or to do? Elements that are likely to be part of their world or worldview? What are kids that age like?
ETA: To clarify, based on a reader question… the story would be set around 2016 or 2017, so definitely modern era (and a bit beyond!).
