From: Mrs. Lehky Grade 5 Sheridan Elementary Petoskey, MI	To: George @ Plum Point Middle School Hi George! Hope you and your classmates are enjoying this book so far. Our group has had some great discussion in the classroom and online. We're really enjoying the fact that the Watsons are from Michigan, which is also where we live. We've also had a lot of good laughs, as the Watson's family relationships have reminded many of us of things that have happened in our own families. I'm writing to let you know that unfortunately, Brandy is no longer part of our group, and therefore will not be able to participate in the online discussion. I'm sure one of our other students would be happy to be a discussion partner, if you'd like. Or if you'd prefer to correspond with another student from a different participating school, of course there are lots of interested people, and certainly the option is yours. We'll look forward to more discussion, and we'll watch for your comments to be posted!
From: Courtney C. Grade 5 Pattison Elementary Katy, TX	To: Anyone I like when byron he dyed his hair orange and it was so hilarious! Suddenly, i figured out that his dad shaved his whole entired head. That was the funniest thing and coolest thing in my life. Please someone mail me soon!

From: JJay Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Stacey from Plum Point Middle School Stacey, did you think that Byron was too mean to Larry, I thinks he treated him okay, we just finished chapter four, and I don't know how far you guys are, but I hope i didn't give anything away, did you also think it was funny when Byron got his lips stuck to the mirror in Chapter one, did you ever have any thing like that happen to you, this kid in our grade got his tongue stuck to a pole while he was waiting for the bus and the bus driver had to pull him off.
From: kenneth Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: krista Yes I wpuld like to be your partener if you want to. Did you feel soory for Larry Dunne? I sort of did because he is poor and just need gloves. But I also thought By was doing what my brother Tony did by protecting Kenney because my brother also beat up a bully because I came home with two black eyes once so I told my brother who was giving me the black eyes. It turned out to be a 6th grader and my brother beat him up.
From: Ray Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Author I'm enjoying this book very much. You somehow worked comedy into a thing like racism and dicrimination. I look forward to reading how you fit in the prejudice people of the south.

From: Devon Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: The Author of This Book I have just read through the 4th chapter of this book, and it is very funny and exciting so far! But, I have a question. Who do you think (in your book) is the best character so far in the first 4 chapters? And are these characters based on people you knew when you grew up?
From: shawn Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Anyone Does anyone feel sad for larry, why or why not
From: jason Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: anybody who wants to respond Did you feel sorry for Larry Dunn and why? I didn't because of the fact that Larry didn't have any remorse for any of the kids that he terrorized and now that he is getting a taste of his own medicine he doesn't like it.
From: Erika Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Julia Sorry if I spelt your name wrong. sure I will be your buddy tipe thing. what ch. are you on ? we are just finished with ch.4. What do you think of this book? It doesnt have anything to do with civil writes or any discimanation.

From: Wes Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Andrew W. Dear Andrew W. I will be your partner. Today we have read chapter 4. I thought chapter four was Pretty good. I think it serves Larry Dunn right when he got beat up by Byron. The only reason I think it serves Larry right is because Larry is a bully. What do you think about Byron beating up Larry. I hope this book stays as good as it is so far.
From: Amy Grade 5 Sheridan Elementary Petoskey, MI	To: Whitney I do not think the Watsons ,are weird they are just unique. Everybody is different and everybody should be themselves.

From: josh Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: jeremy Yes I will be your parter for this book, what chapter are you on we just finished chapter 4. I think that the chapter was great, I liked the part were Byron stuck up for his younger brother becouse I will have to do that for my 3 year old brother Noah. He is going to school next year, he is going to start in kindergarden becouse they said that he is smart and he doesn't need to go to preschool.

From: Tracey Grade fifth Sheridan Elementary Petoskey, MI	To: Paige I think you are right,By was a little too hard on Larry.At first when By started to beat him up, I thought let him have it.....but just like Jess said, Byron sure does know how to make you feel bad for someone, even Lary Dunn.
From: Corey Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Kyle Sure I'll be you partner, but just to let you know I'm a girl. If you don't want to corespond with me I'll understand. What is you favorite part in the book so far? I don't have one yet. Do you think it is fair that Byron was beating up Larry Dunn? I don't think it was. I feel bad for Larry Dunn. Do you? I feel bad for him because just for stealing Kenny's gloves Byron made him be a carp and threw him against the fence repetedly.
From: Erin Grade 5th Sheridan Elementary Petoskey, MI	To: Anyone I think it was good when Kenny made up with Rufus.But I don't know why Rufus was that mad at Kenny.I didn't think that it was that big of a deal.I think that's just how some kids are.
From: Ray Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: spencer I'm sorry that last message was sent 2 times there must be problem with my computer.

From: Ashley Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Jon Sure I'll be your patner! So far what is your favorite part in the book? So far I don't have a favorite part. Do you think it was right for Larry Dunn to get beat up in chapter 4. I think he deserves it. Don't you?
From: shawn Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Anyone who wants to respond Our class just got done with chapter 4, so if Bry told you the story about the frozen people would you believe it?
From: jason Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Tim W. Did you think that the carp joke on Larry Dunn was well diserved or did you think it was just crule punishment that was not diserved ? Please send your comments.
From: Erika Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: eric do you have a TX.acsent?do you like this book?I think the book is good because it gets the peoples atention. it also is funny. the story is suposed to be about civil writes and stuff but the only thing sofar is "were you come from they have them colored water fountens." thats all it said.
From: Lyndsey Grade 5th Sheridan Elementary Petoskey, MI	To: Kelsey Hi! Did you feel sorry for Larry Dunn when Byron was making the movie? I did and I did not. I felt sorry for Larry because I don't think Byron cared at all about hurting Larry. I was surprised that Byron stuck up for his little brother. But at the same time, I don't feel sorry for Larry, because he deserved it because first he stole Kenny's gloves and he was a bully.
From: matthew Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: D.J Yes I will be your partener ,that is if you want to be my partener? Today we just read the 4th chapter of the Watsons go to Birmingham. Do you think that Larry Dunne should treat the kids the way that he does ,by giving each kid a white wash. I don't think that he should , because how would he feel if he got white washed.Do you feel bad for Larry Dunne , I do because he has cardboard on the bottom of his shoes ,and because he only had a t-shirt on under the coat ,so I bet he was really cold. write back
From: Cory Grade 5 Sheridan Elementary Petoskey, MI	To: Amanda Now my favorite part in the book is when Byron was telling Kenny and Joetta about the froze up southern folks. I liked that part where he was telling them that if you freeze to death, early in the morning the fake garbage trucks come by and pick up the dead bodies so nobody knows who froze to death.
From: ally Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: jenna I like this book so far too. I think that the book is cool and interesting in chapter 3&4. Chapter 1-2 introduce the people and what they are like. I think you will like chapter 3-4. Are there any parts in the book that you think were the best or do you like the hole thing so far.
From: Ashley Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Jon Sure I'll be your patner! So far what is your favorite part in the book? So far I don't have a favorite part. Do you think it was right for Larry Dunn to get beat up in chapter 4. I think he deserves it. Don't you?
From: Dave Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Bryan Hi my name is Dave. For school I am doing a coversation between two people about this book. Would you like to be my partner.
From: Kurt Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Erin from Plum Point Middle School I would be happy to be your partner. I am looking forward to talking with you. This book gives great descriptions of each scene. It is very entertaining. I think Byron should stand up for his brother. My sister doesn't need help from me. She takes care of it all by her self.
From: jason Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Tim W. I think the fact that Byron made Larry Dunn a carp was very funny because it's not every day that someone dicides to bully you by calling you a carp and throwing you into a fence for punishment. Did you think that this was just Byrons humerous side showing or him just being mean for more attention from the croud around him and Larry Dunn.
From: Wes Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Author Dear author, I realy like this book so far it is very funny. Is this a true book or would it happen to be someone in your family's childhood. I am reading The Canturbury Tales independently and it is hard to change back and forth from a very, very descriptive book to your book that is not as descriptive. But I am enjoying it.

From: Christie Grade 7th Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: nobody in paricular I've read this book before but it's still funny. I think my favorite part of the book so far was in capter 8 when "Byron was smiling like a giant, bald-headed knidergarten baby". I get a pretty funny picture in my head. The Watsons are almost too real, the remind me of my family.

From: Sarah Grade 7 Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: Brittany was^. I really think this is a good book because it's like a real family in some way. There are some different situations that will not happen in real life. Some of the reactions of Kenny's, Joey's, and Byron's Mommy is different than what people would do to their choildern now. What do ya think?
From: Meredith Grade 7th Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: Rasha Have you ever had to us an outhouse. I haven't and hope i never will. The Watsons have used them in the book and personally i was grossed out by it. My grandma as one but i won't even go near it. I also thought that when the Watsons finally arrived at their grandma's house no one acted like they wanted to be their.
From: Todd Grade 7 Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: anyone Hey whatz up This book is not that fun but it's getting better like when by got his hands burt by mama and like when by got his tung stuck to the merrio of the brown bomer What part did you like about the book.
From: Brittany Grade 7th Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: Sarah DearSarah, How do you like the book. I am really enjoying it. Who is your favorite person in the book? Mine is Kenny and Joey. I like kenny because I think that he is funny when he tease's Byron. The reason I like Joey is because I think she is like momma and that she care's about Byron, but I do not know why she care's about him! Do you know why she care's abou him if you do let mr know.
From: Chris H Grade 7 Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: Sarah K What do you think of this book? I like it accept By always gets in trouble it would be more intresting if kenny got in trouble sometime.
From: sarah Grade 7 Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: andra-dinees Hi you two in the story how do yo relate to more keny or by.
From: Holli Grade 7th Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: Author I was wondering if you made this book from childhood experiences or it was a complete book having nothing to do with your life.
From: Fiona Grade 7 Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: Travis I think that Byron is an outkast. I also think that Kenny is an outkast because of his eye.
From: Megan Grade 7th Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: Lisa and Katie Hey chickies! What chapter are you guys on? I think that I just finished Chapter 14 or 15. I think Grandma Sands seems like a really interesting character. She sounds like one of those people who can make you do what they say. It kind of sounds like my grandma. I also like the way that momma surrenders to Grandma Sands really easily. It is so funny. What do you think about Byron? Do you think that he will change after this summer or over the school year? I think that Byron will definately pay for his crime and he'll pay the time. G2G. Megan
From: Katie Grade 7th Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: Megan and Lisa What chapter are u on I am on 13. I thought it sounded miserable to sleep in the house when it was all hot and stuff. Kenny sounds funny when he talks about how mama and grandma Sands r talking to each other. Did u enjoy the part when they got to the house. Every one was giving hugs and kisses. I think my favorite part was when By got his lips stuck on the mirrior. What was yours?
From: Rasha Grade 7 Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: Angela in Yoeuns Elementary I do think that the first chapter was better that the second. The first chapter is a lot more comical than the second. I think that chpater two has more to do with the rest of the book, but chpater one sets you up for what Byrons character is like! The first chapter, is a little, in my opinion, stabilizing Byrons chracter, while chapter two is doing that with Kennys. Write back!

From: Sara Grade 7th Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: Michale I have been a new kid at a school three times. I was always very scared. It was eaiser the first time because I was in Preschool. The 2ed time was when I moved here to Normal. I went to school for one year then they redistricted. But I have a lot of friends and they are very kind. They helped me a lot.
From: Lisa Grade 7th Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: Katie and Megan Hey how ya doin? I'm on ch.11, Katie, my favorite part was when Byron kissed himself in the mirror too. G2G 555katie st5op it.7 007
From: Dan Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	What do you think about the book so far.
From: Rrandi Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: anyone I think the book is excellent so far.It has humor but it also is realistic. I used to get picked on all the time just like Kenny did. Byron is the"god "of the school that's why Kenny doesn't get picked on so much.Whoever responds to this what do you think about Byron??
From: Tisha Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	i think kenny watson is a out cast because every one teases him and no one likes him but one person rufis

From: Amber Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Anyone Hey People, This book is really good so far. Hot Lips (Byron) Is pretty cool savig is brother and all. Buphead I think is really really wireid. Whats your favorite color.
From: Angie Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	Kenny is not an outcast because He has a friend. Also because of his brother being the God of the school people didn't tease him. Clark is the name of the school. Poindexter is Kennys nick name. Personal savior is what Kenny thinks Rufus is. God is what Byron is at school Byron shows support for his brother by not beating him up. I think thier relationship is okay. It could be better if byron was a little nicer to Kenny. He teases him a lot and plays tricks on him, like the how to survive a blizzard part 1.
From: Ashley Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Becky - Stillwater Elementary I agree. Would you be my buddy, you know chat about the book? I think LJ was mean, but what do you expect from a bully? I think this book is really good so far. I feel bad for Rufus, the way everyone was making fun of him on the first day at his new school. Kenny is an outcast from school because he is so good at reading. I'm not saying that is bad, but he seems to be outstanding at it! It was so nice of Byron to stick up for Kenny when he read out loud, to people in a higher grade level. People are mean, the way they judge people. That has happened to me. Sometimes it turns out bad, sometimes good. I got really nervous. Well, hope to hear from you.
From: Ashley Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Anybody Want to chat about the book. Mail me back.
From: Chris Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: anyone How do you think the book is going so far? What chapter are you on?

From: Ria Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: jennifer would you like to be my pen pal kinda for this book what chapter are you in this book we are only in chapter 3 getting into four
From: Dan Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: anyone It's cool for a older brother to stick up for kenny.
From: Ashley Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Anybody When Kenny went over to Rufus's house after Rufus got mad at him, I figured they would make up and be friends right away. They didn't, but Kenny was mean. Kenny couldn't really help himself though, so he laughed. I thought Kenny would have been a better friend. He was not a good friend. He's lucky that his mom talked to Rufus, or Kenny would be friendless. This time, Kenny apologizes immediately and they are friends again. That made me feel better towards Kenny. And I was glad Rufus had a good friend again.
From: Dan Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: anyone It's cool for a older brother to stick up for kenny.

From: Dan Grade 7 Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: anyone Does anybody still play with dinosouars.respond
From: Patrick Grade 7th Marshall Middle School Marshall, WI	To: Rob, were you talking to me??If so I like the book The book is already my favorite. I usually don't like reading but now i do. I would hate to have to read to other classes because you would be called names. I think it is so dumb that he isn't picked on but then again that would be pretty cool. My older brother picks on me. So I don't think I'm going to be lucky enough to have a saver. I like the idea of a guard. I think everyone at my school is the same at Kenny's school, everyone is prejudice. I don't like it at all. I think it is very unfair how people judge everyone so quickly. They should judge people for their personality not for their looks. I do judge girls by their looks but I also want to get to know them really well. That way after the realtionship, we stay friends. I know a lot of people that are prejudice. Like Whitney from my school!! She not so bad but she judges people a lot (Sorry, Whitney). I think the book is really great and I am going to tell all my friends about it. Mail Me

From: natalie Grade 7th Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: parkside kids hey, do u think that this is a good book so far. Im not sure yet it is funny at some points. Do u think that Momma and Dad will really keep Byron in flint? I think that while there down there byron will act reallt good and they might decied to take him home. But the again they might not . Im not really sure.
From: Katie Grade 7th Parkside Junior High School Normal, IL	To: anyone I like the book so far. It keeps my attention fairly well. But it's not as funny as I thought it would be. It's sort of funny, but not hilarious.

From: Michelle Grade 4 Herod Elementary Houston, TX	Rufus started avoiding Kenny when Cody looked at his underpants and Kenny couldn't help it so he laughed.Rufus was upset when Kenny started to laugh at Rufus's brother instead of him laghing at Larry Dunn.Then Rufus got mad because Kenny was laghing at his brother.For the next few days Rufus didn't pay attention at Kenny. Then Kenny and Rufus got back together by Kenny's mother.She talked to Rufus and Cody his brother. I think that she knew all the time since Rufus didn't come to Kenny's house to play with him.
