The title is Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis.

I think the main character could exist in real life.

I think the author chose this setting because the great depression is an interesting subject.

I think that the story will end that he will find his dad.

I wonder how his mom died.

I think that later he will have to face the cops.

I wonder why his dad left.

This is a realistic fiction story.

The problem it that his dad left so he wants to find him.

One of the most important parts of the story is that he is a foster kid.

Bud is leaving Lefty’s house. The cops pull them over and Lefty tells Bud to shove a box under the seat. I wonder what was in the box?

I think the book will be about Danny accomplishing something big.

I noticed Danny does not go to school.

I think Danny could exist in real life.

I think that the author was trying to entertain me.

This is non-fiction because it could happen in real life.
