Freak the Mighty was just a really good book. it is sad what happens at the end, but the entire story line between the two main characters Freak, and Mighty was just complexing.
both are attracted to each other because one is big without so much of a mind, the other is small but with a large mind.
Freak known as KEVIN in the story is a boy with a birth defect. his body is very small and fragile and cannot hold itself up. however, he has the brain of someone say three times his age or you could say at a genius level for his age. Mighty also known as Max or Maxwell on the other hand is a very grown boy. he stands very tall, yet his mind isnt as quick or as smart.
the two come together and become best of freinds. noth help each other go through problems in life, and yet maintain a trustful, honest, and loyal companionship.
what i most enjoyed about this story was the use of the middle ages. freak the mighty based their tales on the oledn tales of King ARTHUR and his knight of round a...more
