Book Review of Freak the Mighty (Freak the Mighty, Bk 1)

Freak the Mighty (Freak the Mighty, Bk 1)
katy-bee avatar reviewed on


I teach this novel to sixth graders and I find that for a novel that is 15+ years old it still is relevant to many young adults today.

Funny and heart-wrenching at the same time - a very good read. The film version , The Mighty, obviously is missing a few details (stuff you would notice only after reading it 20x per year). The actors in the film really match up to how you envision the characters when reading.
