Bud, Not Buddy

This week we read Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis. We talk about Bud’s greatness as the main character, the lack of closure on Bugs, the portrayal of the Great Depression in children’s literature, and how shameful it is that this is our first book by a Black author. Content Warnings: Dead parents, abandoned children, bad foster homes/families, the Great Depression, racism, sunset towns, police violence, child hunger, and child abuse (physical and mental).
