Along the way, Bud discovers the value of perseverance, hope, and self-reliance. This book teaches readers about resilience in the face of hardship and how the bonds we form with others can help us find a sense of belonging and identity.
pickSet during the Great Depression, this Newbery Medal-winning book follows 10-year-old Bud as he sets off on a journey across Michigan to find his father, navigating hardships and new friendships along the way
This book tackles themes of race, poverty, abuse, optimisim, and compassion. I think this would be a great book to read as an independent reading book for children in fourth grade and up.
pickNewbery Winner. Bud comes from foster homes and an orphanage after the death of his mother as a young child. He goes on a journey to find his dad, who he believes is a famous jazz musican. Set in 1937
pickOne of the books I cherish most from elementary school. I think there‘s a stage version but has anyone got plans to make the BNB movie? If not, I call dibs!
When 12-year-old Bud Caldwell sets out on a journey across the state of Michigan in hopes of finding his father in Bud, Not Buddy, he knows he can handle *anything* as long as he has his suitcase of special things. I felt that same confidence (and excitement!) embarking on this week‘s episode of my book pod, because I had bestselling author and YA superstar Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé as my guest! Tune in at the link in my bio.

pickSuch a good book. I can see why this is a hit with kids that usually don't like to read. It's a great one to recommend to those middle school aged kids who never can find a book that interests them. I really enjoyed Bud's personality and his moxie. An entertaining and heartwarming read.
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Love all the different covers this one comes in!

Great middle grade book about an orphaned boy determined to find his father. Bud takes it upon himself to make his life better and escape the terrible home he's placed in after his mother's death. This book is full of heart and I loved following Bud in hopes he'd find happiness. 💚
First read of the year! My sixth graders will be starting this next week.
pickI read this because I‘m helping my 10 year old granddaughter with a project about it. Bud‘s mom died when he was six and now he‘s 10 and wondering who his dad is. He thinks Momma left some clues and he starts hunting, even though it‘s a big risk. It‘s 1936 and the Great Depression. He‘s a little black boy who shouldn‘t be wandering. And I loved following his adventure!

pickThis is a reread for me, and I fell in love with it all over again! When I was in middle school 15 years ago, this was my favorite book. Reading it this time was like cuddling my own favorite, familiar blanket to me and feeling safe.
There comes a time when you're losing a fight that it just doesn't make sense to keep on fighting. It's not that you're being a quitter, it's just that you've got the sense to know when enough is enough
This book has a way to relate to almost anyone so it is great for everyone to read.
pickBud, Not Buddy is a great work of historical fiction. I had to read this book in Elementary school and I would say that it still holds up as an excellent example of historical fiction rereading it many years later. This book is based on a tough time in America, the Great Depression, and not only that, our protagonist is an African American boy in a time riddled with oppression. This inspirational story is great for kids 3rd grade and higher.
I was nominated on Facebook to do 7 days of my favorite books. On my last day, I posted my favorite to read out loud to my classes. I had several students, who are now in their 20s and 30s reply about how much they loved this book in my class. I start my 20th year tomorrow and I think I needed that validation of doing something right. #teachersoflitsy
Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis is a 2000 Newberry Medal Award Recipient. This HF is about a ten year old boy named Bud. He is on the run after losing his mother to find his father, but he runs into a few challenges along the way. I would use this book as a PR or an IR. #UCFLAE3414SU19
A paean to the smell of books, from a ten-year-old homeless orphan who loves the library.
