I am getting engaged to how mean Herman E. Calloway is to Bud. If someones mother dies and claims you are the father would you make fun of him?

# data[].attributes.body
I connected to the fact that when I meet new people my mom is strict about my manners, so everyone thinks I'm the sweetest little girl ever. (I'm not)

I mean I know they appreciate it, but honestly all the "ma'am" and "sir" in EVERY SINGLE SENTENCE , is kind of annoying.

Bud always goes to these fancy restaurants and eats. He is always hungry and so am I. I bet a lot of people in our reading group and relate to Bud. All because we all love food, so we're always hungry (probably). That's how I'm connected to Bud at least.

I was surprised when he pointed at Herman E. Calloway and said that he was his father.

I was surprised when Deza kissed bud, I was like "hmm, is this just a fantasy?" Also, I agree with Po. IT DIDN'T SAY THAT IN MMM. So, maybe the author didn't come up with them kissing yet. So I don't really understand. I also didn't know that bud looked like that. I looked at pictures from the movie, and they look way different then I imagined. They both look incredibly different on the cover. I don't like how the movie turned out, but I love the book. But, wow! I can't believe she kissed him!! :

Valeria-
I kind of got engaged when Bud and Deza washed the dishes together then... KISSED

I got engaged, when Deza and Bud kissed.

# data[].attributes.body
why it is a coincidence that they both are in the Hooverville in Flint, they both end up doing the dishes in the same group and they are both for the most part trying to find there dad

Like some other people said, it's a huge coincidence that Deza and Bud both went to the same Shantytown! Like, what are the chances of that. Then, they end up kissing. When I saw that I was like wAHHHHhh. I was very confused.

Deza and Bud both end up going to that same shantytown/hooverville. Also, they both met and the author kind of told that part of the story differently in both books.

# data[].attributes.body
Deza and Bud both have different stories about their kiss scene. If other people were there, they might have also told the story differently. It reminds me of telephone because when whatever the first person said goes around, it changes sometimes because people hear things differently. In this case with Bud and Deza, they remember or see it differently instead of hearing. They are still similar.

Do you think  the author planed to write Deza's story, then incorporated her into Bud Not Buddy, or do you think they made a spin-off story based on her popularity from Bud not Buddy?

# data[].attributes.body
OMG BUD KISSED DEZA. That doesn't seem like something she would do though

# data[].attributes.body
Both Deza and Bud talk about their families and what their families had told them.

When Bud and Bugs got separated, It was so sad. Like at first, even if they didn't make it or failed, they had each other.  I guess Bud was used to being on his own. I wonder what happened to Bugs anyways.

# data[].attributes.body
They were both at the Hooverville in Flint, Michigan and they both met which surprised me a lot because the stories are different. And Deza kissed Bud. Which did not happen in Might Miss Malone.

Bud met Deza, yay! I've noticed that the way they each told the story differently.
