Which student response to the excerpt is an example of a text to text connection
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: d. This story about Angel Island reminds me of a book I read called Children of Ellis Island.

Explanation:

Text to text connections occur when a person relates something they are reading to something else they may have read or experienced that is similar to the piece they are reading.
