Birdhouse

A detailed Summary of Birdhouse

As Beverly and her mother and father wait patiently at the Greyhound Bus Station. She hated waiting for the bus, it always seemed as if it forever. All around her she could smell the stench of burning rubber. Apparently Beverly had been invited to spend the summer with her mother's cousin Verna for the summer while attending college in San Francisco, California. Beverly had never been to college and was actually being pressured by her mother not to go in the first place. It was supposed to be a good school though, even though it was a Jr. College named Chuffy. When she finally arrived in San Francisco she went straight to her cousin's house. The whole house was painted bright colors, making it seem more fresh and new. Compared to her house, which happened to be all white! Giving the sense that it was boring and plain, which Beverly seemed to think it, was. The school was even worse... Each room was painted a dark green, while the desks where in a triangular form as if it were an elementary class. Besides the schools lack of fashion Beverly had a great time getting to know everyone. If you lived close by (which she did) you could just spend the night at home, but if not the school principles were always willing t

My biography is about a lady named Beverly Clare. A young adult, who fights to have both emotional and physical independence. Basically it tells the story of her life, who she is and what she does. During the novel Beverly meets a great number of men. Some of these men were married, while some just couldn't handle long distant relationships. Luckily Ms. Cleary found her special someone. His name was Clarence and is about the same age as Beverly (one year older... never said actual age). Towards the end of the novel Beverly and Clarence get a little serious. They soon start talking about marriage and love, while Beverly's mother pretty much has a heart attack!

After it explains everything about her mother's cousin's house, I think that she will go to college and then end up not being able to handle it. And who know she might even have to go home. I don't really know if this prediction is correct but I just have a gut feeling something bad is going to happen.

Beverly luckily ended up with a girl named Claudia, who happened to be a lot like Beverly. Neither of them smoked, both were very insistent on studying and pretty much liked to do the same things in there free time. Each of them had mother's who were listening to their every word, making it easier to understand one another. The only difference that I could see was how Beverly seemed more quiet and predictable.
