Summary: This book is a must-read book about an orphan boy who
goes through foster care of people who didn't treat him well. He
eventually runs away and begins a search journey for his father using some
valuable items left by his mother. Not much can be said about this book because
I do not want to spoil it!
Personal Statement: After reading this book, I thought wow! Bud has a strong
voice. If you have read, “The one and only ivan” by Katherine Applegate and
cried, wait until you read this book! This is such a fantastic book, even words
cannot describe how good it is. I definitely recommend this book for graders to
read because the vocabulary is along their grade level. I can definitely see
more boys getting hooked on this book than girls, mainly because of how the
book is written. In this book, you will find history, laughter and Joy. Just
reading the first chapter, you will be pulled along and will have a hard time putting
the book down.
Rate: 5 out of 5
