Which of these options is an example of a text to self connection?

In The Library, Elizabeth Brown moved to another city. This is similar to what Sasparillo the Armadillo did in The Armadillo from Amarillo when he was moving to different cities in Texas.

There is an actual place called Palo Duro in Texas, just like the place that Sasparillo visited.

When Sasparillo wrote a postcard to his cousin, this reminded me of when I wrote a letter to my grandmother. In both situations, the writing was to inform the reader about what was happening.

When Sasparillo went on a trip to Amarillo, I thought that was very cool.

Which of these options is an example of a text to text connection?

I thought Sasparillo's trip to Palo Duro looked extremely fun, and I want to go someday.

In The Library, Elizabeth Brown moved to a new city. This is similar to what Sasparillo did in The Armadillo from Amarillo when he was travelling to different cities in Texas.

When Sasparillo took a rocketship to outerspace, this reminded me of the actual trips to outerspace, such as the moon landing. Both of these situations must have been very exciting.

When Sasparillo wrote a postcard to his cousin, this reminded me of when I wrote a letter to my grandmother. In both of these situations, the writing was used to inform the reader about what was going on during the trip.

What type of connection is this? In The Armadillo from Amarillo, Sasparillo wanted to learn about where he lived, so he travelled to different cities. This reminded me of when I wanted to learn where I lived, so I took a look at a map of Texas. Both Sasparillo and I were very curious at that time.
