FREAK THE MIGHTY
Freak the Mighty was a touching story about a boy, Max with low self esteem living with his grandparents after his biological father, referred to as "Killer Kane," murdered Max's mother when he was only 4 years old. His father had been locked up in prison and sentenced to 'live in prison.'
Max meets up with his new neighbours, Kevin the small disabled boy physically but not mentally and his beautiful mother, Gwen. He remembers little Keving from preschool and begins to hang out with each other.
To cut the long story short, they have a blast together, whether that includes slaying dragons or searching for an old grotty purse in the sewer.
The ending if the story is horrific and I cannot believe reading it myself. The two of them become an undefeated team, managing to take on 'Killer Kane,' later on in the book. The ending though is devastating, which really gets you thinking about the friendship that you have and why you should be grateful for it. Read this book to find out!
