I thought the first chapter was funny with the "Lipless Wonder", but the sencond chapter was boring. I have a feeling this book will be fun to read.I feel that Byron deserved what he got.

I think this book is getting better by the chapter. In the first chapter I liked the part where Byron got his lips stuck to the mirror. In the second chapter I felt bad that he got laughed too. I've only read the first two chapters, but I already like it.

I think the book is hilarious. Especialy when Byron gets his lips stuck. Another part I find very funny is when Kenny is reading to another class and the teacher turns the book upside down.

hiya yall don't yall think it's funny with what happen on I think the book is funny especially when they were on the the bus.the way larry dunn shut up when the busdriver said what he said about his mama. To me though what made the chapter hilarious is when kenny was in math class and the newboy and got introduced to the class and the teacher said go sit next to kenny and he go kenny i thought your name was pointdexter then the class bust out laughing.

I think the Watsons go to Birmingham -1963 book is great because it kind of tells you about how it was back then.so fare I like chapter one because Byron got his lip stuck on his dads care. chapter two was all right but it wasnt better than the first one. Do you think chapter one was better too?

I like the Watsons go to birmingham because of what mama did to By, when his lips was stuck to the car mirror and she pulled him back and pop his lips was off the car and he ran into the house with his hands over his mouth cring.
I also like the part when the bus diver told Larry to seat down and cut this mess out.

I think it's a pretty good book,because it's shows other kids how people treated other people long ago.
In ch.1 I liked the part when Byron's lips got stuck to the mirror but I only read 2 chapters.The 2nd one was boring!Don't you think ? p.s. Write back!

I like the book so far its insteresting to me.I like the
part when Byron got his lips stuck to the car mirror.Because
just thinking about it is so funny.It makes me think about
this movie that I've seen.The little boy got his tongue
stuck to the flag pole at school.In this book I think the
mother is over protecting her children because when Byron
got his lips stuck to the glass she was acting like he got
shot and was going to die.The mother reminds me of my
grandma.Byron is a big bully.Don't you think?

I like it because the part when kenny said people call me names like cross eyed punk because I have a lazzy eye.Then byron said look strait ahead then he said look to the side at me,and Kenny did.Then Kenny"s eye was fix,even though people still called him crossed eyed.Then the nexed morning Kennys dream came true,to boys came on the bus one was short and one was tall ,they were brothers.They talked country and they wore wraggedy close.people started making fun of them.

My favorite part of the Watsons go to Birmingham is when Byron gets his lips stuck to the car window and they try hot water but it freezes instintly.Then when the Dad goes in to call the hospital to see what to do and the mom rips Byrons lips of the mirror.Then when they were in the car and Kenny was making fun of Byron by calling him lipless wonder.
