Synopsis
The Newbery Medal and Coretta Scott King Award-winning classic about a boy who decides to hit the road to find his father--from Christopher Paul Curtis, author of The Watsons Go To Birmingham--1963 , a Newbery and Coretta Scott King Honoree. It's 1936, in Flint Michigan. Times may be hard, and ten-year-old Bud may be a motherless boy on the run, but Bud's got a few things going for him: 1. He has his own suitcase full of special things. 2. He's the author of Bud Caldwell's Rules and Things for Having a Funner Life and Making a Better Liar Out of Yourself . 3. His momma never told him who his father was, but she left a clue: flyers advertising Herman E. Calloway and his famous band, the Dusky Devastators of the Depression Bud's got an idea that those flyers will lead him to his father. Once he decides to hit the road to find this mystery man, nothing can stop him--not hunger, not fear, not vampires, not even Herman E. Calloway himself.

Seller Feedback (4,523)
- c***c (381)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseWell packaged, item as pictured, came very quickly. The practice of assigning a condition of “acceptable” to every book listed offers no assistance to prospective buyers for making a purchase decision and would be likely to deter me from choosing this vendor over another offering the same edition, but the abundant photos provided and assurance that an effort to show any defects would be made were considerably more helpful. Fully satisfied with the book received.Adventures For Readers : Book 2 - Harcourt Brace (Hardcover, 1968) (#155917010545)
