I hope this answer is correct
Explanation:
1.More important was the impact that it had on people's lives: the Depression brought hardship, homelessness, and hunger to millions. jobs, were evicted from their homes and ended up in the streets. Some slept in parks or sewer pipes, wrapping themselves in newspapers to fend off the cold.
2.Bud is running away from the Amoses. He calls it “being on the lam.” He is aware that he looks out of place, so he decides the safest thing to do is head for the library where Miss Hill, a librarian, might be able to help him. Bud plans to hide in the library's basement until the building opens.
3.In the book Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis, there are four main themes. They are the importance of family, hope and perseverance, and the effects of racism.
4.In Chapter 5, Bud's mother tells him to remember that no matter how bad things look, "when one door closes, don't worry, because another door opens" (Curtis 43). Angela Caldwell's metaphor regarding the opening and closing of doors represents Bud's challenges and opportunities that he encounters throughout his life. Bud endures many trials and tribulations throughout the novel and every time he seems to have failed, another opportunity presents itself that Bud is able to take advantage of. For instance, when Bud misses the train to Chicago he is forced to walk towards Owosso and eventually gets picked up by Lefty Lewis, who takes him to Grand Rapids. After missing the train, Bud is upset and feels that he will never meet his father, but when Lefty Lewis arrives, another "door opens" which leads Bud in the right direction. When Bud initially meets Herman Calloway, he believes that Herman is his father. Herman views Bud with contempt and Bud begins to worry that he will be sent back to Flint, Michigan. Later on, it is revealed that Herman is actually Bud's grandfather, and Bud lives happily with the Dusky Devastators of the Depression. Essentially, the "door closes" when Bud finds out that Herman is not his father, but another "door opens" when he discovers that he is Herman's grandchild. Bud's entire journey is a series of negative and positive experiences that correlate with his mother's metaphor of doors opening and closing.
