So apparently I read this last year and already completely forgot that I did. I did read it for a class so would have read it again anyway. I still enjoyed it and am giving it the same review. 3.5/5 stars. It's a good children's book about history and orphanage during the Depression. Bud has left...
"Bud not Buddy" follows the tale of a young boy named Bud who has run away from the foster system and is searching for his father.

I actually really, really liked this book. The main thing keeping me from giving it five stars is the sloppy wrap-up at the end. Even though Bud had figured out his relation to Calloway, Calloway was still grieving, and so wasn't shown as processing the information, and his relationship with Bud was...
I purchased this book at the insistence of my 11 year old daughter. She didn't tell me until after I read it that it was a book she was reading in school so I read it to make sure it was age appropriate for her. That being said, Bud, not Buddy was a very good read. It is all about this kid named B...
