    This is happening again! I wish that Buds mother wouldn´t like she did in chapter 1 of Bud, Not Buddy, Bud wouldn´t go hungry, and they might´ve been poor/broke. I wish that Buds mother wouldn´t die because, he wouldn´t have had to go out and look for his dad because he was already staying with his mother.
