  2. It shows that he may be shy at first but once you get to know him he likes to talk. Once Mrs.Badger asked him questions he got used to talking to her."But i couldn't make it a story." said Leigh, felling a whole lot braver." He got used to talking to her and got kind of used to it and that shows Leigh can be shy but once you meet him and ask some questons he will start talking more.

    His behavior tells you that he has never heard of this author and he has not read her books. He was also a little shy. lastly , he did not know what to say. "Mrs. Badger tried to get some of the shy people to say something withouut much luck."

    It tells me that he is a nice boy and that he wants to become a writer when he grows up. It also tells me that he is shy but gets interested in things very easily."I just wanted to think. A real live author had called me an author. A real live author had told me to keep it up. Mom was proud of me when I told her."

  9. His behavior tells me that he would like to be writer when he's older. His curis about one writer in peticular, that is Boyd Henshaw. He's huble and does not think much of his work and thinks alot of other peoples work. "Just something about a ride on a truck".

  10. leigh's behavior at the luncheon tells you that he is kind of shy but is very patient. When he meet the author I could tell he was really excited."I was still trying to think of something interesting to say to mrs. Badger while i chased garbanzo beans around my plate with a fork."

  11. From his behavior,I can tell that he considers it an honor to be called an author by an author. Here is an example from the book when he can't get over what Mrs. Badger called him,"A real live author called me an author, I thought." It also tells me that he takes time to make choices and can be a bit shy while talking to people he has never talked to before.

  12. It tells me that he is really interested in the fact that she met his favorite author. Also it tells me that he can be shy but, when they talk about a topic he likes, he starts to talk a lot. Like in the story," Mrs. Badger tells Leigh that she thinks Mr. Henshaw was a very nice man."

  13. It tells me that he is a realy good writer but he would rather meet mr. Henshaw.but he didnt look to happy that it was a girl writer beacause he wanted to meet mr. Henshaw. but he was happy that he met an author."I just got an honorable mention on my story."

  14. Leighs behavior is shy but brave in a way like "I got up my courage to ask my momif she thought dad would get married again?"see he got some courage to ask about that and he is sorta brove at times too.

  15. That he is a nice person. Also that he has confidence of being a good writer. When the author told him his story was really good he felt more confident about being a writer. And that is a good quality to have."What did you write for the yearbook?" "Just something about a ride on a truck."

  16. His behavior tells me he that he very much enjoyed meeting this author and he is a little shy when talking to people. Leigh also shows that he was so glad to hear that Mrs. Badger liked his story even though he couldn't turn it into a story. Here is an example to support my answer, "'A Day om Dad's Rig was splendid work for a boy you're age. You wrote like you and you didn't try to imitate someone else.'"

  17. Leigh's behaivior at the lunchen explains a lot about him. We found out that he is shy around strangers or famous people. It also tells us that he can be shocked very easily, and he will keep thinking about that. He's also speechless at times when he's nervous. "Mrs. Badger tried to get some of the shy people to say something without much luck, and I still couldn't think of anything to say to a lady who wrote books about girls with big feet or pimples."

  18. It tells me that he is a shy and a person that does want to be a author.He was still not that happy because he didn't meet the auther the wanted to meet.But he did win second because of the peom that was copied off a book."you win some you lose some."

  20. I think he tells that is a nice person.Because in the story "he gives his lunch to his friend".He also seems like a good writer because the author told him he was a good writer.

  21. Leigh's behavor at the luncheon was calm.He was thinking what to say to Mrs.Badger even though he never read her books.He was also shocked when she asked him what he wrote in his year book."There I was face to face with a real live author who seemed like a nice lady, plump with wild hair, and I coulden't think of anything to say beacuse I hadn't raed her her books."

  22. It shows that he is shy and dosent like to crowd peolpe. He is probly not selfish because he just dosent bump people out of the way to be first."Mrs.Badger tried to get the shy people to talk."

  23. He is calm & shy.Beacause He left miss.badger alone so she could more space to talk to more people and so other people could have a turn to talk to miss.badger."what a mess!"

  24. I think that it shows that shows that he is careful and precautious. He's also respectful and he doesn't butt people out of the way like a goat. He was also a little nervous, probably because he had never read Angela Badger's books. I know it's a little nerve-racking to say something to someone that's as famous to Mrs. Badgers. I understand that he's a little shy, but that's no reason to let others stampede over you. Even though he didn't win, he still had fun. To prove my point, here is an example from Dear Mr. Henshaw, "I figure you win some, you lose some." See? Even though he didn't win, he still made the best of it. He's a real trooper, I'll tell you that. A real trooper.

    I think it tells me hes a shy person but he wanted to come meet the auther. "Miss Neely explained that the teachers discovered that the winning poem had been copied out of a book and wasnt going original so the girl that sugmitted it would not be allowed to go and would I take her place."he of course said yes.

  26. I think it tells you that he dosn't know that much about the auther. It also tells you that he might be a little shy. He hasn't read her books. "I coudn't think of a thing to say because I hadn't read her books."

  27. yes leigh behavior does tell me about because he is a very shy doesnt really talk to many people. although when Mrs. Badger came he really opened up to her and took all her coments that she said about his story. sometimes he doesnt have enough confidence in himself to write but he is very shy, silent, but also a great writer."Areal live author called me a real live author."

  28. I think it tells me that he is a nice and shy boy because of the way he acts around people.I think he is a shy boy because he always is by him self and has no friends.I think he is nice because the librarian asked him if he was going to do the athur project he said yes."she called me an athur."
