 John Bru
by Cali
Yesterday John Bru came to our classroom to read us two books. He was our Mystery Reader. The clues he gave us were really easy to guess that it was him. I knew he sold cars so I knew that the guy we are talking about was John.
What I learned about John is he is from New York and he has a little boy.
I still want to know about how John first got the job selling cars. Did he have other jobs before and did he go to college?

 Mystery Reader
by Gabby
Yesterday we had a mystery reader. The clues were really easy! Most of us said it was the guy who sold Miss Powell her car. We were right! His name is John Bru.
John read two books. One book was called "Where the Wild Things Are". The other one was "Taxi Dog". "Where the Wild Things Are" was my favorite book. My mom used to read it to me when I was little.
John said he has a dog named Baby. John is in a band when he is not selling cars.
I'm curious to know what kind of dog Baby is. Is Baby a boy or a girl? How old is Baby? What color is Baby? Just wondering!

I learned that John plays in a band when he isn't selling cars. He can play the guitar and the piano. John says that he writes songs.
I wonder if John has a wife. I wonder if John had fun reading to us.

What I learned about John is when he is not selling cars he plays in a band. He is 31 years old and he was born in New York.
John sold Miss Powell her car. It is called a Ford Edge. I wonder if John will still be selling cars when I am old enough to drive.

I learned that John used to live in New York and that is far, far away. John is almost twice as tall as me. He's old, but only a little bit old.

 John
by Matt
I liked the books John read to us yesterday. The books were called "The Adventures of Taxi Dog" and "Where the Wild Things Are". I thought they were great. I thought they had good word choice and good voice.
John is a good car salesman and a good reader. I found out that he is in a band. He thinks he has shinier wheels than Miss Powell. He might, but he doesn't have a phone or navigation in his car.
I was wondering if John does anything else besides play in a band. Does he like NASCAR races since he sells cars? I wonder if John goes to the movies with his friends.

John's Visit
by Taryn
My favorite book that John read was "The Adventures of Taxi Dog". I like the part when the dog is sitting in the taxi with his head hanging out the window. I liked the book because it had good ideas. I was sad up to the part where the dog was lost.
I learned that John is a good reader. He can use different voices when he reads. That makes it more interesting to listen to. I also learned that he sold a car to Miss Powell. He is 31 years old and he used to live in New York. Now John lives in Las Vegas with his dog named Baby.
I want to know how John gets the cars like the one he sold to Miss Powell.
