  4. well i think he is because if bud mentions his mothers name maybe herman e. callowaywill remember when they were together but now she is dead so they cant meet each other agian.
    i think he is his father. one reason is he just doesnt remember because of his age. another reason is he might be hiding that bud is his child but does not want one at all. those are reasonsons i think he is his father.
    i have no reasons why he isnt his father because i think he is.

  6. Question #1

    I think that Lefty Lowis's Family is a nice family. They take care of Bud by giving him food and giving him a ride "home."

  11. Question 1: I think Lefty Lewis is a very kind man to Bud because he let him into his car, and home. I think this is because he wanted to protect him and keep safe from anyone else who would see him.

  12. Question #3
    I think that Herman E. Calloway is Bud's Father because a couple of chapters ago Bud said that his last name is close to Herman's. I think it might also not be his father because the last names are different.

  15. question 1- I think that Lefty Lewis' jokes are a little bit insulting. For example, when lefty lewis calls bud's head a peanut shape. I think Mrs. Sleet is very nice. I think her kids are also nice. The boy is a little rude, but other than that I think that their family is really nice.

  22. Question 3: Herman Calloway is Bud's dad because he talks like Bud, plus his last name is simalar.(Caldwell, Calloway), but he doesn't believe Bud.

  23. Question #3: I think that Herman is Bud's dad because like Bud said their last names are kind of the same. And i don't think that Herman is Bud's dad because the last names aren't the same.

  25. question 3- For many reasons, I think Herman Calloway is Bud's father.

    1.Bud's last name is very like Herman's.
    2.In the book it says that Bud has a strong resemblence of Herman.
    3.It also says that his voice and the way he talks is very much how Bud does.
