I notice that kek was back ton a positive and happy mood and he feels good  and so glad that he knows that Gol is safe.

# data[].attributes.body
When I heard the word 'MY SON' I was completely shocked and surprised. I actually thought that his mom would not come at all. But Kek kept hoping.

# data[].attributes.body
I noticed that Kek was soooooooooooo happy to see his mom at last to find her alive we came so far and it finally came. keks mom is here

# data[].attributes.body
i em tinkling that all that hop that kek had was a good tin because his mom came home and he never gabe up.

# data[].attributes.body
In the end I was so glad that Kek had found his mom.And also that Hanna got a letter from her mom and that made me happy for her and Kek.It was a big surprise for both of them.Also I got so surprised he knows english more better,he has a GIRLFRIEND and he likes America.But,I still think he loved his old home were his family use to live.

# data[].attributes.body
Whoa i thought the mom was not going to come back that is amazing i am crying right now from it

# data[].attributes.body
i was surprised and shocked when keks mom came and when he told her that america was their new home>and i feel they are going to have a happy life in their new home america with hope.

# data[].attributes.body
I love that Kek's mom is here and I almost cried happy tears. thanks Katherine Applegate for making this book.

# data[].attributes.body
I notice that well after Kek was hoping for so long since the beginning of the book it all came down as him meeting him mom again something he dreamed and hoped for many years.

# data[].attributes.body
I had a good feeling that Kek was going ti find his mom but at the same time I thought she was dead but other wise she was alive and Kek was happy
Also it is wierd for me that gunwar has a girl friend

# data[].attributes.body
WHAT I THINK IS THAT KEK IS SHOCKED THAT THEY FOUND KEK MOM!! Also what I think is that kek hasn't lost no hope about his mom he kept hoping and wishing that they could find his mother and his wish or dream came true.

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how Kek's mom surprised him and another thing I liked is how Kek's English got better.

# data[].attributes.body
In the beginning of the story when Kek lost his mother he never lost hope even when Ganwar said she might be dead but at the very end he heard a voice that sounded like his mother and then he heard a women scream MY SONNN and Kek was very happy.

# data[].attributes.body
what i think about the ending is that Kek when he said welcome home i think he meant that they where going to stay in america the rest of the life.

# data[].attributes.body
So Gol is in the zoo ( petting zoo area) and I think he is going to be very happy 

# data[].attributes.body
So Gol is in the zoo ( petting zoo area) and I think he is going to be very happy 

# data[].attributes.body
kek finally founded his mom and he know all of the words like airplane instead of flying boat

# data[].attributes.body
Kek FOUND HIS MOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE CALLED HER MAMA!!!

# data[].attributes.body
What I liked about the ending of the story is how he told Hanna if ''Gol can moo she can sing''

# data[].attributes.body
i like the way that the book is so creative and at the same times it makes you feel the way the characters feel.

# data[].attributes.body
i noticed that kek is happy that gow is going to the zoo and that he is go see her at the zoo and happy that go is save

# data[].attributes.body
I notice that in the beginning Ganwar didn't talk to Kek much but now at the end they both talk to each other and know each other better

# data[].attributes.body
I think its amazing that the book is over and i would not think kek would bring gol to the zoo i never thought thats how this would end im also sad they didnt say anything about the mom in the in end

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Hannah,Kek and Ganwar taking Gol to the petting zoo was a crazy idea but it was a good choice because since Lou will be moving soon Gol will have a happy place to live.

# data[].attributes.body
I noticed that Ganwar was being nice now, like at the time when kek got here in america ganwar was mean but now ganwar is nice

# data[].attributes.body
I notice that kek learned a lot of English and he found his MAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Kek was proud because he  gave gol and that gol has a save place to be.And that he is happy

# data[].attributes.body
I have loved the book so much,what I think is that hes always has so many great ideas that he even took Gol to the petting zoo and that Kek will be happy that when he whisperer to Gol,"If you can walk,you can sing."

# data[].attributes.body
So Gol is in the zoo ( petting zoo area) and I think he is going to be very happy

# data[].attributes.body
What i think is going to happen is that Kek might sell Gol to zoo or the cops.

# data[].attributes.body
I notice that whenever Kek is in a happy and positive mood he always has a crazy idea. For example, in the poems we read today that Kek had an idea to send Gol at the petting place in the zoo.

# data[].attributes.body
I think this was a good book especially the way Kek changed from beginning to end so did gun war he had a change of heart

# data[].attributes.body
I think Gol knew home is going to be the zoo and probably Kek is going to keep meting Gol in the zoo

# data[].attributes.body
I love how the book ended and that Kek, ganwar, and Hanna got closer as friends. but I wish the book didn't end yet.

# data[].attributes.body
What I think is that kek is going to stay and see if they find his mother. Also what I think is that when kek said they might not find his mom and his cousin ganwar when he said kek can do it his self it sounds like ganwar knows something about kek mom and kek doesn’t know about also ganwar doesn’t want kek to lose his hope!

# data[].attributes.body
When Kek ¨Runaway¨ I think he did not mean to do it because Ganwar will know where he is because when he yelled at the driver to stop he was going to the farm and Ganwar will know that he will be there.

# data[].attributes.body
i think gonwar is changing up his felling and he is mostly the one with hope to

# data[].attributes.body
i think that kek is not going to gib up because he returns back to lou farm to see gow 1 more tame and he git his job back

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Gonwar is a complete different person now because when we first met him he was really rude and giving really bad comments to kek about his mom but today he is being nice and helping kek feel better and giving kek happy and good vibes to kek and giving hope but kek is feeling down and he is changing himself too.

# data[].attributes.body
In these poems we can really see that Kek is losing all of his hope, in one of the poems he even said "what if shes never coming back", if we compare this to Kek in the beginning " I wonder how ma will feel about this when she sees it". Their completely different.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Ganwar is having a change of heart he was mean at first and now he is being nice . Lou and Kek and Gol are all good now he went to eat cookies with Lou and Gol of course he can't have any

# data[].attributes.body
I thought that in the oart where he started to cry it was because of Gol

# data[].attributes.body
When kek cried while petting gol i think its was because he was overwhelmed of evrything that was happenning so he couldn't hold back anymore so he started crying.

# data[].attributes.body
When Kek said he found the sun for Gol,I remembered that his aount told him "Kek will find the sun in the dark" And Kek said "Shes wrong"but now he found the sun for Gol.

# data[].attributes.body
Valeria Aguilar 
I think that Kek  still had hope and in the talk he had with Gunwar he still believes his mom is alive and the dream he had it  might be a clue that his mom can be alive 

Parker
Parker
I think that kek will at some point maybe do what gunwar had said and just stop hoping that they are still alive?


Nathalie
Nathalie 
I think whats going to happen next in his dream is that the next day they get attacked and they lost each other and i think they took kek mom.  

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez

Arian Gonzalez

I noticed that Kek has a lot of hope for his mom and not thinking about negativity,What I noticed is that Kek is getting better and better speaking English.  

Erasmo

I think the cloth that kek has was made by his mom

Kelvin
Kelvin
I think that the cloth that kek was holding its either something very important or his dad,mother or brother gave it to him.

Erika Morales
Erika Morales
When gannwar said ¨There all gone,There all dead.¨ Kek probably felt something because if I would be in his shoes I would feel sad or mad but Kek still has hope that is mother is alive but she might be dead.

Gladys
Gladys
I think Kek misses his family and the author said he felt like a stranger at this aunt and Ganwar 

Valerie
Valerie
I think that Kek is a hopeful kid because he has hope that his mom is alive 

Fernanda Alvarez
Fernanda Alvarez
 Kek is holding a cloth maybe by his mother for not him to feel alone and remember about her and I think thats when he had a dream about the attack that happen in his home and him remembering from the past.And I agree with Genesis and Erika.

Evelyn Saldana
Evelyn Saldana

Nathalie
Nathalie 
What I think is going to happen next is he might get make funny of because he can't speak right and I feel like that someone will come up and help him.   

Valeria Aguilar
Valeria Aguilar
i have a prediction that Kek would like to tell stories just like his dad did before he died.

Parker A Bailey
Parker A Bailey
I love how the author uses similes and metaphors to the story it makes it so much better and i love how when kek sees something its named something else

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez
I noticed that Kek doees like school and I noticed that david and the lady they are still trieng to check if Kek's mom is still alive.

Luna
Luna 
I think kek will enjoy school especial with the teacher because i feel like the teacher will help kek around to like what David and keks aunt is doing and if they get any bad news they will probably try to hide it from kek.    

Genesis Benavidez
Genesis Benavidez
I think that Kek feels a lot more better now that in the classroom they are able to understand each other more because when Kek drew a cattle all of the class started saying 'Moo' which probably made Kek feel at home in Sudan

Fernanda Alvarez
Fernanda Alvarez
I liked when Kek was drawing a cow on the big board and everybody started to Moo and it maid me happy that Kek was also happy that when he said "now we can all understand each other" as a cattle and that was the part when he remembered about his home in the past.

Arian Gonzalez
Arian Gonzalez
I liked the part when all 16 kids started to say moo because when they where saying moo it brought back memories for Kek when he lived in Sudan. 

Kelvin
Kelvin
I notice that that Kek is starting to understand English better than before. And i also think  that Kek will have friends from the school he goes to. 

Evelyn Saldana
Evelyn Saldana
i think that what is going to happen next is that Kek may be bullied and Kek may not know if they are making fun of him.

Erika Morales
Erika Morales
I noticed that when Kek was being questioned he was concerned and a bit scared because the lady was asking him a lot of questions he did not know how to answer to them. I have a prediction that Kek is gonna make friends with the kids that come from different places around the world.  

Gladys
Gladys 
I think that kek will make friends at his new school and he is really funny so maybe he is like the class clown . If I did not know where my mom was and if I knew that my father and brother died I know I will miss them all the time . So I think he misses them but does not show to make Ganwar think he is a big boy like him 

Erasmo
Erasmo
I think Kek will like school becouse the kids are just like him

Julian Brummer
Julian Brummer 
Kek is understanding English better then before because before he couldn't understand a word of English but now he understands a lot better

Daira
Daira
I like wen Ganwar tales Kek that they are going to it him up and Kek tings that american people it thee oun Cain but  he meant that thee are going to faith him

Roselyn
Roselyn
I think that kek thinks the new school reminds him of home


Pages 76-88
Valeria Aguilar
Valeria Aguilar
I think that when kek said he might love to live  in america but Ganwar told him the Americans wont let him,I think that Ganwar tried to fit in ,in his school but the kids laughed at him because of his arm and his scars,That's  why he gets a lot in fights.

Nathalie
Nathalie 
I think that kek might love to be in america and he enjoys going to school. I also think that  kek might get into fights like ganwar. 

Valerie
Valerie
I think when Kek said it stapped like a sharp knife I thing that meant like a memory that really brought him to the point he got sad that his family is not with him 

Julian Brummer
Julian Brummer
I notice that gonwar is acting strange when Kek even talks about america so i wonder if gonwar is not sure if he wants to stay or go back to Africa where the government men are

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez
I think that kek will probably live here in America because the statement that says " I mite like it here in America" kek says that might mean something later in the story. 

Genesis Benavidez
Genesis Benavidez
I feel like when Ganwar said that American people will not let you feel American he was trying to warn Kek about bullies. I also think that in the future Hannah and Kek will become bestfriends.

Kelvin
Kelvin
I notice when kek said he liked america ganwar said like he wouldn't enjoy it and i think that maybe people bullied him so thats how he may have those scars.I also notice that Kek will most likely be friends with anna.

Fernanda Alvarez
Fernanda Alvarez 
What I have been noticing about the book is that when Kek sat down to eat with Hannah,she started to be asking questions about his family, Ganwars and Kek sounded like he did not wanted to talk about it because it brings him memories and also he is till Hoping for his mom also I agree with Kelvin I think Kek is going to be friends with Hannah.

Arian Gonzalez
Arian Gonzalez
I noticed that when Kek was talking to Hanna she started to ask him questions about his parents and he said that he saw his dad and brother Lual get killed by the government men. 

Erika Morales
Erika Morales
I think that Kek will make good friends in school and in his apartment complex. I also think that when Kek was being questioned by Hannah he was a bit concerned and also sad because his dad,brother and mom are gone but he really misses them and still has hope his mom will come back. 

Erasmo
Erasmo
I think kek wants to stay in america and learn new things in america

Luna
Luna 
I think kek is really loving school and America.I fell like dose not want to hear about his mom in till David has feedback to give him.  

Parker A Bailey
Parker A Bailey
I also think its a good thing that kek seen his brother and father die because if it happend to me i would be happier to know what happend because i would not want to hope

Daira
Daira 
 think that Kek is going to love school because hi all ride  has frens  and  hi is also going to love america 

Roselyn
Roselyn
I think that kek would make friends and maybe like america

Gladys
Gladys 
I think Kek likes school in America . If it was my first day I would be nervous

Evelyn Saldana
Evelyn Saldana
i think that Kek will like to go to school a lot because he said that he loved his first day


Pages 89-106
Valeria Aguilar
Valeria Aguilar 
I think Hannah and Kek would be amazing friends,because in the story we can see how hannah helps a lot kek,to understand america and is being a nice friends,and she knows how it feels like not being with family.

Luna
Luna 
I think that kek is having a lot of hope about his mom and David will have good news about his mom because kek has been having  hope but no else has hope for his mom so they will all be shocked if the mom is alive but if she is dead i think kek will do something about and every day he will say why did i have hope anyway and just cry every day but i feel like the aunt is going to want to hide the bad news if there is any. 

Erasmo
Erasmo
I predict that Keks aunt is gonna get mad at him becouse he broke her plats but they fixed it.But probably  the glue is not strong enough.

Valerie
Valerie
I think Kek is finally happy to have a friend to be there when he needs it

Nathalie
Nathalie 
I think that gamwar is going to blame it on kek for putting the dishes in the washer.   

Fernanda Alvarez
Fernanda Alvarez
I think that Kek is going to be grounded because he broke the dishes and I also think that his aunt will go buy more plates.And this time I predict there going to teach him what he dose not understand and what is washing.I also predict that Kek is going to blame it on Ganwar for not telling him were to do it in the correct place.

Genesis Benavidez
Genesis Benavidez
I think that Kek resembles hope and is trying to give some of his hope to other people because in one of these poems he said to Hannah that you just need to have hope and also he has hope that his mother is alive .

Daira
Daira
I think that kek ant is going to be mad at him because he seed that he reader kiss a crocodile 
 over tailing hes ant that hi broke her plaits.

Parker
Parker 
I think that putting the dishes in the washers is just great and I am still wondering when is kek going to see the cow because the cow is on the cover so i want to see the cow again.

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez
I think that Hanna will probably Hate the foster home because shes not with her real family and I noticed that Hannas family is separated ans he is sad about that.

Arian Gonzalez
Arian Gonzalez
I liked when Hanna was talking to Kek about her family and she was thinking about her mom and Kek told her to have hope for her because she dose not know whats happening to her like Kek he does not know if his mom is still alive or not. 

Kelvin
Kelvin
I think that Anna and Kek are going to be good friends because they are starting to know each other better then they did before and it seems that they get a long well. I also think that Kek might get in trouble for breaking the dishes.

Julian Brummer
Julian Brummer
i notice that Hanna is very different and yet the same like when the washer broke the dishes Kek and Hanna laughed so hard they fell on the floor. but when Kek said do we use the yellow school bus? Hanna said no we use a city bus.

Evelyn Saldana
Evelyn Saldana
i think that Kek is going to be in trouble because his aunt will find out that he broke the dishes

Gladys
Gladys
I think that when kek put the dish in the washer it was funny and that he said he would prefer to kiss a alligator . When Kek's aunt gets there she is going to find out I think she is going to be mad but since Kek is going through the trouble of losing his brother and dad and his mom is missing .  

Erika Morales
Erika Morales
I think that Ganwar should start telling Kek were to put certain stuff instead of just letting him put random stuff all over the house. I also predict that Hannah and Kek are gonna be best friends because they have a bit in common and she understands what he is going through.  

Roselyn
Roselyn
I think Kek is going to get introuble because  he broke dishes


Pages 107-127
Valeria Aguilar
Valeria Aguilar
I think that kek is going to get the job of taking care of lou's cow!

Luna
Luna 
I think that Lou will give kek the job because she needs help getting on track and what i think is that if kek is working Lou will probably have more time to pay the hospital and kek will have a lot of fun because the cow reminds him of home so he will for sure enjoy the job. 

Gladys
Gladys 
I think that kek is going to work as a farmer and help with the cow maybe they will become friends 

Nathalie
Nathalie 
I think kek is going to get a job and help lou with her bills and I also think kek might save money for his family and might buy the cow. 

Valerie Rodriguez
Valerie Rodriguez
I think that kek might get a job there in the farm

Evelyn Saldana
Evelyn Saldana
i think that Kek may join the farm with Lou and to be able to talk to the cow. 

Erika Morales
Erika Morales
I think that Kek will ask Lou for a job to take care of her cattle because he needs to help his aunt pay the bills and buy her new dishes. I feel like Lou would say Yes because she is already Elderly and needs help around with his friends. 

Fernanda Alvarez
Fernanda Alvarez
What I think is going to happen is that Lou will let Kek help her with the cattle and maybe that will help Lou to save her strength  and also have tons of help from Kek,since Lou is already getting old.And maybe that will help hey pay the bills from the hospital.

Erasmo
Erasmo 
I think kek is going to get the job for the money to buy new dishes and in the cover is where the cow is and that is how he meets the cow

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez
I think that Kek is trieng to get a job of taking care of the cow and when hes doing that, Lou is gonna pay Kek for taking care of the cow.

Kelvin
Kelvin
 What i think may happen is that Kek has a chance of getting a job at that farm and he will most likely spend more timewith the cow

Arian Gonzalez
Arian Gonzalez
I think that Kek will help out Lou to take care of the cow because she is old and can't walk to good.

Daira
Daira 
I think that  kek will take good kaer of the cow because he yous to take care of the cow  and hi has inspired 

Genesis Benavidez
Genesis Benavidez
I think that Kek will actually get a job for taking care of the cow because Lou the woman who owns the cow is very old and doesn't have the strength to keep up with the cow and because Kek know's a lot about cattle's he's able to know what they need.

Julian Brummer
Julian Brummer
I think Kek will start working on the farm but will have some trouble because he doesnt like the cold and he also has school to go to 

Roselyn
Roselyn
I think Kek would work st the farm for the cow


Part Three: pgs 131-145
Nathalie
Nathalie 
What I think what kek said that him and ganwar were singing and then when kek said we belong here it kinda sounds like kek is happy right now and feel like American is his new home 

Valeria Aguilar
Valeria Aguilar 
I notice how Kek cares about Ganwar,because he wanted ganwar to work with him.And that when they started working and singing old songs they felt at home.

Luna
Luna 
I think that Gonwar will get along with kek better now because they will work with each other and kek actually cared about Gonwar and got him the job. 

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez
I think that there gonna be doing a good job at the farm but they might have a plan. At the end they started humming that might mean something probably a flashback.

Valerie Rodriguez
Valerie Rodriguez
I think Gunwar is concerned about the job like he can't say yes of no he does not know weather to work there or not

Gladys
Gladys 
I think that kek is finally going to feel like he belongs because he got a nickname in school witch is "cowboy'' and the cow has a a real named called "Gol"

Fernanda Alvarez
Fernanda Alvarez
I think that Kek and Ganwar are going to be having fun with Gol and also Ganwar is going to like his new job and I think hes glad he got a job with Kek.And I feel that Lou will one day get more week.And there going to get along with Gol because It means "family" to him.

Parker A Bailey
Parker A Bailey
I think ganwar smiled when lou said that to us the the other hand i think ganwar felt like someone believed in him

Evelyn Saldana
Evelyn Saldana
i can tell that Kek wants Ganwar to feel like he cares to the world because he gave Ganwar a job and Lou did not care if he only had one hand.

Genesis Benavidez
Genesis Benavidez
I think that in the very last sentence that we read Kek said "this is the place in the world where we belong the most" he was referring to Sudan  because the only place Kek has been that has cows and that he loves is back at home in Sudan. I also think that Ganwar got over his missing hand becuase whenever Lou said "I guess you have to use the other arm" he smiled.

Daira
Daira
i think that Gangway is going to lake working in the farm wit kek because Lou accepted Gangway yes the way hi is .

Arian Gonzalez
Arian Gonzalez
What I noticed is that Kek wants Ganwar to work with him because maybe because its to much work for Kek and he wants a partner to help.

Erika Morales
Erika Morales
I think that Ganwar and Kek will get along more often because know they are working together and they might bond with each other and hangout more. I also thinked that Gol was a good name for the cow because it means family and the only place that makes him happy is his old home.

Erasmo
Erasmo
i think gounwar will get the job and kek is going to help him learn about farms 

Julian Brummer
Julian Brummer
i like that Kek wanted ganwar to work on farm because ganwar needs to get a job so the farm is a great place to work.

Kelvin
Kelvin
I think that kek and ganwar will enjoy working on the farm because it reminds them from where they used to live

Roselyn
Roselyn
i think ganwar would like working at farm because he noddesed and smiled to lou


Pages 146-154
Valeria Aguilar
Valeria Aguilar 
i think that the drawing the boys draw of a skeleton was for kek since he is skinny.And that the teacher should of paid attention better than reading the news paper,

Gladys
Gladys 
I thought that it was really mean that Kek is getting bullied and picked on from his culture (African american)and where he is from (Sudan) and when he threw that apple back at him he probaly threw it hard and he did not mean to through it to that boys nose and the teacher did nothing just read the newspaper . I think that that bully is going through something as well

Valerie Rodriguez
Valerie Rodriguez
I don't think it is fair to blame Kek for defending himself The boy that was trying to say " you don't belong here in america" he should get in trouble  and not Kek

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez
I noticed at the start when ganwar said that he would get bullied and that he will never let him be in america. Kek started to get bullied and it was mean of the kid to say and draw the bad things and he insultid him.

Arian Gonzalez
Arian Gonzalez
What I wonder is that how did the teacher not hear the bully saying Hungry Kanya but Kek did,something that I noticed is that the book has not mention the aunt in these past poems.

Erasmo
Erasmo 
I think that the bully's are not going to bully kek anymore becouse kek dident know what they where doing and its not fun for the bully's

Genesis Benavidez
Genesis Benavidez
The three poems that we read are really a roller coaster of emotions and feelings because at first Kek was at the zoo and he felt at home because they were a lot of animals there and back at Sudan they were probably more animals too. But then Kek started feeling guilt as for why he survived but not the other people in Sudan, and now he's bullied by some kids and doesn't even know. Now he has a detention slip and feels honored for being the only one. 

Nathalie
Nathalie 
What I think about this is that the teacher should have been watching the kids but she wasn't watching kids and kek and his bully got in to a fight kinda throwing a apple to each other. What I also think is that the bully have gonna but not kek. I think kek was trying to pay  attention to class 

Kelvin
Kelvin 
I notice that Kek when he was at the zoo he felt like he was at home and he still has hope that his mom is alive. I also notice that Kek still dosent understand  much English so he things detention is good.

Julian Brummer
Julian Brummer
I hate that the teacher didn't keep a eye on his students until after the  boy got hit in the nose and Kek got a detention slip instead of the boy and I hope that boy got a nose booze. 

Erika Morales
Erika Morales
When Kek´s classmate drew a picture of bones and left it in his desk I think that was just very rude because Kek is going through difficulties in his life and he does not know really anything about America. I also predict that Kek will tell hannah about his classmate and she will stand up for him probably.

Evelyn Saldana
Evelyn Saldana
i feel like its funny how Kek thinks that going with the principal is good.

Fernanda Alvarez
Fernanda Alvarez 
In the last poem,I never liked how the boy treated Kek,like throwing half an apple at him,AND....drawing a dead body with bones ,I mean Kek never did something to him so why is he even bothering Kek.Also he is not suppose to be judging  by his place,Just because hes from another place dose not mean he  cant be in America.And also I predict he is going to get in trouble because he already got a slip for detention.

Parker A Bailey
Parker A Bailey
I am really mad that a kid would draw a pile of bones for kek and the bully did not get detention? but i think its funny that kek thinks detention is a honer.

Daira
Daira 
i think that the boy that is bluing  kek is going to cip on bluing kek because hi probably nous what  kek is going trou 

Luna
Luna 
I thought it was really mean of the boys to draw bones and i really feel bad that the teacher did not see that but he gave kek a detention slip.

Roselyn
Roselyn
I think Kek didnt know he was getting bullied and he got detention for no reason.


Pages 155-170

What I have  notice was when Kek said he saw green food and started to cry because in Sudan they had to wait in line to get food and he saw all the food that was in the store.When Kek went to the library it reminded him of the grocery store and of his mom that wanted to read.

Evelyn Saldana
Evelyn Saldana
what i notice is that Kek cried because he remembers when he was in Sudan they made a line to get food and he made a line when he was in the store. 

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez
I noticed that kek told a story about a baby and her mother and that made me sad and i can just picture in my head and that was really sad

Erika Morales
Erika Morales
I noticed that when Hannah and Kek were at the grocery store Kek started to get tears on his eyes because he was having a flashback when in Sudan you had to make a line to get food.  I also noticed when Kek was in the library he was thinking of his mother how she wanted Kek to read and he was going through a lot of emotions.

Genesis Benavidez
Genesis Benavidez
I noticed that in the Grocery store, Kek cried of seeing the food. I think the reason he cried is that back in Sudan they probably didn't have much food and now that he's seeing all of this food he just feels lucky and starts crying

Erasmo
Erasmo 
i notice that kek and Hanna where in the library Hanna said to show her a picture that looks like gol and he said he was not in a library mood.Also when they where in the store he saw food and started crying becouse he dident had alot of food in sudan.

Arian Gonzalez
Arian Gonzalez
What I noticed is that Kek when he went to the grocery store he started crying because all the food that he saw brought him back memories.   

Valeria Aguilar
Valeria Aguilar 
i noticed how kek was proud of himself for paying back the dishes he broke and paying  for the choclate for  hannah.He feels proud that he has pay back his mistakes

Gladys
Gladys 
Kek had gone to the grocery store he was so surprised that there was so much food he cried the first time he had went to that grocery store and he had got some dishes for his aunt because he broke the other ones so he bought some .

I kind of know how it is to have a lot of stuff around you to make you cry or tear up because when i see a lot of legos i tear up with joy.

Kelvin
Kelvin
I think that when kek went to grocery store he started crying because in sudan there was most likely less food than there was there.

Julian Brummer
Julian Brummer 
I wonder why Kek started crying at the store and I think that Kek is happy that the mall has so many things to buy.

Nathalie
Nathalie 
When kek was singing that song to Hannah I think that his mom sing it to him when he was little.  

Daira
Daira
i notice that wen Kek start crying at the store is because hi is remember  wen the babe d aide and way hi d aide of hunger 

Roselyn
Roselyn
I noticed Kek was crying at the store because it reminded him of sudan and he didnt have alot of food in sudan

Luna
Luna 
kek was crying because he had a flashback when sudan and him did not have a lot of food.I can picture that it kinda made me cry too.

I think that kek is mad that lou is leaving and more he is sad and mad that gol the cow is noo longer going to be there,the only thing that makes him feel at home is not longer gonna be there,thats why he is mad and sad

Fernanda Alvarez
Fernanda Alvarez
When Lou told the news to Ganwar,Kek and Hannah,Lou tells them that she is going to sell the farm and she is going to leave the animals.And Kek got upset about leaving his home, (Gal).He was not happy about the news.He was also mad that Ganwar was not so upset about the news.ANd I have a prediction that Kek is going to take Gal to his aunts house.I know how it feels to lose something that you love and that you were always with.

Genesis Benavidez
Genesis Benavidez
I notice that Hannah is being the only being true to him because she called him a stubborn moron boy whenever Kek told her about Lou and Gol the cow. 

Parker
Parker
So i predict that kek will feel bad that he left the farm and go back to work at the farm i say this because in the front picture its kek and gol so no gol means they need to change the cover and kek might take gol himself

Gladys
Gladys 
When I heard Kek did not like it in america and that he wanted to go back to home (Sudan)because he lost his cow(gol) and when Mr.Franklin called him cowboy he said "dont call me that anymore im just Kek now" that made me think before that he was happy he was in america but he still missed home and he ran to the bus stop .:O 

Arian Gonzalez
Arian Gonzalez
What I noticed is that Kek got mad at Lou because she says that she is going to move to another place and Kek got mad because he says that he is never going to see Gol ever again.

Nathalie
Nathalie
I think that Hannah is right because sometimes people cant pay off their house bill and also some animals cant live that long and they will pass away. When Lou said Gol is to old it kinda sounds like Gol is going to pass away soon..  

Julian Brummer
Julian Brummer
like that Hanna said Kek was being a stubborn moron boy but I don't like that the farm is going to be sold

Erasmo
Erasmo 
i predict that kek is going to tack the cow with him to remind him about his family

Evelyn Saldana
Evelyn Saldana
what i notice is that Kek got mad at Lou because she said that she was going to leave and Kek did not want her to leave

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez
I noticed that the bully is so mean to say theat kek is diffrent and that is really bad

Erika Morales
Erika Morales
When Kek screamed ´´Ugh I hate It Here!´´ I think that was rude of him because after Lou told him she was gonna have to sell the farm and also Gal he got so furious that he could not even speak to Lou or get called cowboy at school.

Daira
Daira
I know this is that whenever Lulu tells kek  that she's selling the Farm kek all mad and sad and that's not like that  and kek feels that hi lost the only ting that felt like home 

Kelvin
Kelvin
Well what i noticed is that Kek got mad at Lou because she was moving and he wouldnt see the cow

Valerie
Valerie 
I think that kek is going to be sad now that the cow may be gone

Roselyn
Roselyn
Kek got mad at Lou because kek wouldnt see the cow more often like he did


Pages 184-200

I think that Kek might have started to loose hope that his mom is alive.because when he said a man knows when he is defeated he might refer to he knows he wont find his mom.

Fernanda Alvarez
Fernanda Alvarez
When Kek was in school Mr.Franklin wanted to bring a cake to school and when they brought it everyone yelled a statue of liberty and then Mrs.Hernandez was going to read the passage and they all groan.But then when they finished the passege Kek noticed that a cow was on it and it was Gal.But he felt sad for a moment because Gal was leaving the farm.And it reminded him of family.And they ate the cake

I am coming back to my old predictions to where i think keks mom was shot in the leg and hid so she would not die so i think keks mom crawled to a rehabilitation center.

Nathalie
Nathalie 
I think that when kek and his mom try to run away and she got stuck and the people were coming and kek had to run away without her and when they said " blood was going everywhere " it kinda sounds like the people killed kek mom and the other kids moms. Also I feel like this is bad on kek because I think that kek would want his mom to see him grow up.

Genesis Benavidez
Genesis Benavidez
I think that Hannah is actually noticing that Kek is losing hope of everything, Gol is probably gonna go away, the farms gonna be gone and they cant find his mother. Hannah's probably trying to make him feel better somehow.

Daira
Daira 
i think that wen kek and his mom go awry and his mom go,s  one way and they separatist is wen his mom go to a different camp and kek is all aloud but hi steel has hop 

Gladys
Gladys
I think that Kek misses his mom and wishes that he could change stuff that happend 

Valerie
Valerie
I think kek is having a dream that reminds him of old habits maybe

Arian Gonzalez
Arian Gonzalez
I liked when Kek mentioned the cloth that he has and then in his dream it told us how he got the cloth and how he lost his mother.And what I noticed is that every chapter Kek is slowly losing hope for his mom. 

Julian Brummer
Julian Brummer 
I think that Kek is going to go try to find his mother on his own which is a bad idea because he doesn't know much about the city and where would he go to find here

Erika Morales
Erika Morales
When Kek was having the dream which was probably not a dream at the last part were it said ¨My mom was gone¨ he was probably sad,scared and lonely because if he would still be in Sudan with his mother he would of been killed. But he still does not loose hope that she is gone but I think she might be dead.

Evelyn
Evelyn
i think Keks mom was shot and Kek just felt bad because they tried to run away but they could not and thats when Keks mom got shot

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez
It got me thinking that why does the lady have a dog. i know that because in the book kek wondered and says that why does the lady have a dog

Kelvin
Kelvin
Im pretty sure i think that Kek misses his mom i also feel like his mom got shot

Erasmo
Erasmo
in the part where kek mom got shot and he was scared that he tried to run

Luna
Luna 
when kek was having a dream he said his mom was gone so i am going to keep that in my head and see if it happens again.


pages 201-210
Nathalie
Nathalie 
I think that when kek yelled at the driver and said stop I think that he is going to take Gol and go find his mom and I think also that kek might go back to his aunt house because he doesn't have food and water. 

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez
I think that kek will regret of running away so he goes back and he is having flashbacks and being sad

Parker
Parker
I think kek will get off the bus and say goodbye to just gol so no one knows he left until morning and maybe kek will come home to his aunt

Arian Gonzalez
Arian Gonzalez
What I predict is that Kek problaly say goodbye to Gol before he leaves and then when he gets to the airport he may not have enough money and he will have to stay.

Valeria Aguilar
Valeria Aguilar
I think that Kek Will say bye to lou and gol because how he said in the poem goodbyes where special in his village,and because he felt bad he screamed at her.

Gladys
Gladys 
I think kek with say his last goodbyes to gol and talk to Gol and not say goodbye to Lou probably because he is still mad at her and then get on the bus and leave . I also think Ganwar and Kek's aunt will go looking for him everywhere and will check at the farm to see if he had gone over there . 

Evelyn Saldana
Evelyn Saldana
i think that Kek is going to say bye at Ganwar, lou, the cow and his aunt.

Genesis Benavidez
Genesis Benavidez
I think that Kek is going to stay over at Lou's house but not inside, outside with the cow. I think this because when he was at the bus he spotted Gol all alone, it probably made him think that the cow is Kek. All alone without no company and no familiy.

Kelvin
Kelvin
I think that Kek will say his goodbyes to the cow and the lady and leave but he may have to stay if he dosent have enough

Daira
Daira 
I think that kek is going to go back to his ant house because he misses her and he's going to apologize to lou for what he did

Erasmo
Erasmo 
i think that kek is going to take the cow with him to go fine his mom but the aunt and ganuar is going to notice that he ran and went away

Valerie Rodriguez
Valerie Rodriguez
I think kek is going to tell a friend that he is leaving

Fernanda Alvarez
Fernanda Alvarez
What I predict is that  Kek is going to go and say Good-Bye to Lou and Gol and maybe Kek is gonna want to take Gol with him since Lou is going to sell the Farm and animals,and I think Kek is gonna walk with Gol since it reminds him of home.

Erika Morales
Erika Morales
I predict that Kek is gonna visit Lou and Gol to say his goodbyes since he might go to the airport but his Aunt and Ganwar dont know that he runaway to go find his mom. I also think that Kek running away was a bad idea because since he is going back to sudan to find his mother he probably does not know if they are still attacking Sudan.

Julian Brummer
Julian Brummer
I notice that ganwar is being nicer then we first met him when he was negative about almost everything 

Luna
Luna 
I think when kek runs away he will take Gol because he loves him because he reminds him of home and i feel like kek wont say bye to Lou because he is probably stilol mad at her because she was selling the farm and the animals.
