Freak the Mighty
By Rodman Philbrick
Characters:
Mighty/Maxwell, Kevin/Freak, Gram, Grim,
Fair Gwen, Killer Kane, Loretta and Iggy Lee.
Plot:
At day care Maxwell (also known as Kicker) meets a
boy who’s only there for a day or two. As the book
moves along this mystery boy is revealed – he’s a
highly intelligent midget kid. They soon become
friends and start saving the world; in their minds,
like the Knights of the Round Table.
Recommendation:
I highly recommend this book to anyone who’s a
brave reader and can fight the tears (10-80 years
old). If you read it, read it to the end!
I give it five stars:
