What is a brief summary of the book Freak the Mighty by Rodman Philbrick?
The book ‘Freak the Mighty’ is by Rodman Philbrick. In this book, Maxwell Kane, a lumbering eighth grader who describes himself as a “butthead goon,” has lived with grandparents Grim and Gram ever since his father was imprisoned for murdering his mother. Mean-spirited schoolmates and special ed (for an undetermined learning disability) haven’t improved his self-image, so he is totally unprepared for a friendship with Kevin, aka Freak, a veritable genius wit.
