Bud, Not Buddy Ch. 9 & 10

According to Bud, how are ideas like seeds? 

• They start small and grow bigger than you ever thought they could.
• They don't take root unless you tend to them. 
• They need a lot of weeding to keep the bad parts out. 
• You have to dig a hole before they can really get started.

Why did Bud decide to talk across the state of Michigan from Flint to Grand Rapids?

• He thought that if he would travel around the state he surely would find someone who he was related to him.
• He wanted to find Miss Hill to see if she had any information that would help him.
• He knew he had to get out of Flint before the people from the home found him and sent him back there. He thought Grand Rapids was as good of a direction to go as any.
