i love this book if i didn't have a second copy this would not leave my library..this is a story of a troubled teen facing gangs, drugs,etc...instead he works his way up to be a boxer..and the disciple it takes to become one..no gore..great for children on a 4th grade reader and up..i taught this book in a high scool 10grade english class..it speaks to the young and the teenager..language very minimum, with no sexual content... a must read for a child coming of age story
