Ride the Butterflies von Donald Davis

Ride the Butterflies is about a boy named Hawk growing up. Hawk grew up in Nantahala county and went to Sulpher Springs school. When Hawk was in Junior High School he wanted to work as a bus driver. Hawk made new friends at Bus Driver's School. Hawk met Davey, Bobby Jensen, and Stanley Easter. Stanley is a black kid that is the same age as Hawk, Stanley is also known as Easter Bunny. Stanley and Hawk eventually become best of friends. As a bus driver, Hawk meets some new friends. Hallie Cosby is one of Hawk's new friends. After Hawk is done with being a bus driver he goes off to collage.
I really like this book because the story has surprises like one of her favorite teachers has a stroke and retires. Anyone who likes to read emotional books would like this book. This book is a great read and is relatively short. I enjoyed reading this book.… (mehr)
