What does Bud think Miss Thomas’ humming sounds like? Like a train coming on the track.

About the Book Bud, Not Buddy tells the story of a young boy who lives in Michigan during the Great Depression. After living in an orphanage and escaping from a foster home where he’s forced to sleep in a shed, Bud travels on his own to find a musician, Herman E. Calloway, who he believes is his father.

Bud tells them that his mother got sick and died a short time after becoming ill. Bud tells Herman that his mother did not go to work for six days in a row because she was feeling ill. When Bud walked into her room one morning, she was dead.

Herman E. Calloway is the grandfather of Bud Caldwell and the estranged father of Bud’s mother, Angela Janet Caldwell.

Bud does not find his father. The man he had believed to be his father, Herman E. Calloway, turns out, in fact, to be his grandfather. When Herman finds out that Bud’s mother was named Angela Janet Caldwell, he is inconsolable.

Why was Eddie Bud’s favorite? He looked the coolest in his sunglasses. He gave Bud a chocolate bar. He was clearly on Bud’s side and looking out for him.

Lefty Lewis and Herman E. Calloway, although fictionalized, are based on my grandfathers. (The real Herman E. Curtis actually had a great sense of humor.)

The truth is that Mr. Calloway gave a rock to his daughter each time the band toured, with the date and city inscribed on it. Bud wound up with a collection of those rocks because his mother, Angela, was Mr. Calloway’s daughter.

What surprising thing happens to Bud at dinner? He met his dad. He couldn’t stop scratching records because a Platypus was controlling him.

Calloway views Bud with contempt because he knows that he is not Bud’s father, and thinks someone may be trying to swindle money from him. Regardless of his suspicions about Bud, Bud gains favor in the eyes of Miss Thomas and the band. Herman may feel jealous that Bud is getting positive attention.

When they return, Herman reminds Jimmy, “Don’t forget, this is your little red wagon, you pull it if you want.” Jimmy agrees and calls Bud back over. He makes a deal with the boy. Jimmy is going to feed Bud, but in exchange, Bud must be completely honest with him.

The historical fiction novel Bud, Not Buddy, by Christopher Paul Curtis, is the story of ten year old orphan Bud’s quest to try to find his father in Michigan during the Great Depression. It is often difficult for students to discern fact from the author’s fiction in historical fiction.

What did Bud say the band should be called? Miss Thomas and the Dusky Devastators of the Depression and a Mean Old Guy on the Giant Fiddle. Why did Bud think the Band had six exclemation points behind it? He thought it was the best band he had ever heard.

Jimmy tells him he’s wrong—he reveals to Bud that Angela Janet was Herman’s daughter’s name, meaning that Herman could be Bud’s grandfather. Bud is overjoyed to receive the news that Herman isn’t his father after all.

C always has one white person in the band to set up gigs and to “own” his property, since black people aren’t allowed to own property.
