Answer:

The answer is C. The pronouns I, me, and my are used extensively in the text.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking what evidence best supports the first person narrative voice in her book. We are looking for FIRST PERSON NARRATIVE. First person in books usually means that books are written like this:

I have had a bad day. I accidentally spilled milk on my brother and my mother grounded me.

That is an example of first person narrative. You can tell because there are pronouns like I, my, and me. Here is another sentence.

She had a bad day. She accidentally spilled milk on her brother and her mother grounded her.

We can see here that this is not narrative. This is about someone else. Whereas the other sentence is about the narrator.

I hope this helps!
