Christopher Paul Curtis

Christopher Paul Curtis is an incredible author that anyone will enjoy reading.  He has a sense of humor that comes through.  I’m sure some of the things he writes about are from his personal narrative.  You feel like you personally know the characters and feel what they are going through.  They certainly get in some pretty sticky situations. His main characters are usually boys that are out to beat the odds.

 The setting for Bud, not Buddy is during the depression.  You get to understand a whole other way of life.

His latest book Elijah of Buxton was a runner up for the Newbery this year.  I can’t wait to start it.
