Edwin Madrid Fernandez Jr 

Ms Lewis final project!

                 Junior is a shy child, he doesn't talk to many people. He always gets bullied by students in his school. His family is poor so he rarely has money for himself. Because when his dad gets money he usually runs off and gets drunk at a bar. Junior only really only talks to Rowdy his best friend. They have been friends since they been kids. Midway though the book, he moved to a different school out of the reservation, the school's name was Reardon.  That's when his friend Rowdy befriended him. Then soon everyone from his old school hated him for being a trader. For awhile he had no close friends. Then he got in a fight at the new school, and he thought he was going to get jumped the next day. Instead he got respect from it. He started to talk to Penelope more. After he told Penelope he was poor and always try to impress her, they started getting closer.

             
                 For me I was a very shy kid growing up. I didn't really talk much in kindergarten i went to 2 different schools just in kindergarten!! It affected my learning because i was so quiet. I never got close to anyone, or ever had a best friend in elementary. In my middle school years i started making more friends. i become more social and talkative. I was kinda like Junior when i grew up quiet, shy and didn't have many friends at first.
