Is it possible? It is very unusual to see blond children in Morocco? The photo is not too clear but it does kind of look like her. The story says the McCann's were in Morocco. What do you think?LONDON, England (CNN) -- Authorities are examining a photo taken in Morocco showing a child which appears to resemble missing British toddler Madeleine McCann, a spokesman for the girl's family told CNN Wednesday. This digital picture was taken by a Spanish couple who vacationed in Morocco in late August. more photos ยป "It appears to look very like Madeleine on first glance," spokesman Clarence Mitchell said. The digital picture was taken by a Spanish couple who vacationed in Morocco in late August, he said.

Yes, it could be her, and if it is - they'll find her soon, or so I hope. Also, I am reading daily all the news around the search of Madeleine, and pray that this angel is still alive. I feel so sorry for her and for her parents, and I do not doubt that they have nothing to do with her abduction. I am seein daily what is going on on this page: http://news.sky.com/skynews/madeleine TheFortunes

When I first saw the picture, first thing that came to my mind was omg that's her. The shape of her head, hair color, also why would a Morrocco woman be doing walking with a fair skin child attached on her back. The child was looking at the camera, while the lady kept her head down. Now if that is Maddy, these people will try to get as far away from that area as fast as they can. I pray it's her, that means she's alive and will be found soon.

Although it could be Maddie, there was also the Belgium girl who looked very like her as well. In fact, I think that at that age there are probably a lot of girls who look like her around the world. Lets hope she is found soon.

I saw this on TV tonight. The showed a close up of the girl in the photo, with an inbox next to it with a photo of Madeline. Although the photo was blurry, it sure looked familar. It's hard to believe that a Morrocan family would have a blond haired child. Then again, it is hard to believe that she would be alive. I honestly don't know what to think?

I really dont know what to think about this situation...If it is her, why would they be walking down the side of the road in full view for everyone to see, its not like she would blend into the crowd...Either way I do hope that they get some answers soon..

I so hope it is her - as I imagine everyone else does too. I don't usually go in for "miracles" but it really would feel like one if it did turn out to be Madeleine. It's certainly very unusual to see a child with that colouring in Morocco. It's maybe still only a remote possibility but I would love this story to have a happy ending.

It does give a glimmer of hope to the family that their little girl may be alive and well. I hope that soon the little child is found and brought home to her parents.

I saw the photo on the internet whiteheather, and from what little I could see in the picture, it did look like Madeleine. I hope that little girl is alive and healthy. Hopefully they can solve this mystery soon.

This picture is on the front page of my newspaper this morning and I have to say there is quite a resemblance. It *could* be Madeleine, it is very unusual to find a blonde child on the side of a road in Morocco

I saw the photo too and although it does bear a resemblence it's hard to tell for sure. hat a miracle it would be if they found her alive, and a relief for the parents. I know the parents have been under scrutiny lately, but I would still like to believe they had nothing to do with her disappearance.

That would be incredible if it is her. I feel so sorry for the parents of this little girl and pray that they do find her real soon but it would be awesome if this little girl is her and she gets back with her parents.

It could be madeleine. The girl in the photo bears a remarkable resemblance to her and I really hope that she is alive. If it is her sooner or later the police are going to catch whoever has taken her for sure, there are only so many hiding places in the world and everyone has been keeping an eye out for her. If the girl in the photo is madeleine, at least the police will have an idea of what kind of person to look for. Thanks for posting this!
