Messed Up by Janet Nichols Lynch
I am R.D. from Messed Up. I had repeated 8th grade. I like to skateboard everyday before and after school. I have 2 best friends name Dominic and Scraps. We all go to school together call Buzz Middle School. I have a mom who is in prison. A dad who working in another state. So I live with my grandpa. My grandma lives with somebody else that's in another state. Sometimes I get into trouble a lot for things I didn't do, and for things I did do. But my grandpa doesn't really do anything he just let me do anything. One day I met a girl who was in a fight on the first day of school. Her name was Desiree. She knew my name cuz I was cheering her color which is red and everybody knew. She seem like a pretty nice girl. I was sad when I found out that my grandpa died and that CPS were gonna take me to a foster home but i didn't want to so I pretend that he was still alive from going to a foster home.

R.D sounds like a interesting fellow. I think it makes a good story. Good job STEW STEW!
ReplyDeleteThanks Joe
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a pretty interesting book... If you had the opportunity to write the ending to this story, how would it end???
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a very interesting story... If you had the opportunity to write the ending to this book, how would you end the story for R.D.?
ReplyDeleteProbably a good ending cuz R.D. has been through a lot in this book being by himself and driving at night and being by himself and maybe his family would let him stay at his friends house
DeleteThe title Messed Up is very fitting based on your description of R.D.'s life. I wish you had gone into more detail about all of the challenges that R.D. faces. I'd like to know how all of these challenges affect R.D. and how he feels about everything that leads up to the end of the book.
ReplyDeleteWell for him being alone everyday I think he sometimes be scared and think his grandpas ghost is in the house and what he has to face everyday is with his girlfriend Desiree I thnk that he is starting to not like her cuz he keeps trying to ditch her. Also in the end I think that he told the family about his grandpa's death and that maybe they're not mad at him for not telling them. And maybe that Desiree understands that he doesn't like her and doesn't bother him.
DeleteWow...R.D. has many problems to deal with! It must take a lot of guts to pretend like your grandpa is still alive so that you don't go into a foster home. I would like to know more about Desiree and if she ends up helping him with his plan of tricking CPS. Also, what kinds of trouble does he get in?
ReplyDeleteLots of trouble for things he didn't do. Like he helped Desiree out of a fight on the first day of school then he got suspended for being involved in the fight. Sometimes he gets in trouble and what I thought about that was wrong cuz of him repeating 8th grade maybe some of those teachers don't like him.
