In our language arts class we have been reading Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis.  In this novel, a young boy searches for his father during the Great Depression.  In order to understand the novel better, we created a wiki for the Great Depression.  You can search through our wiki to learn more about the important people and events of this time period.
