Freak the mighty is a great book because of the twists and turns. If you read this magnificent book you will discover that at first the book doesn't really make sense. But as you continue through the book the pieces start getting into place. The book is very funny because it feels like Max (the tall one) is actually telling the story so it's like a primary source. Freak (the one on the shoulders of Max) is a very interesting character because he almost has the knowledge of Albert Einstein. But some secrets about him will almost be never revealed. Not even to a soul mate. Grim and Gram are also a couple of interesting characters because they take care of Max while his dad is in jail and his mom dead so they have their moments with Max throughout the story. Grim is basically a nickname for Grandpa but Max calls him Grim because it is much shorter. Grim is really protective because he has a gun just because he thinks Max's dad A.K.A Killer Kane might escape from jail and come to their house. Gram is really sensitive and always want to make peace. For example, She cried because Grim had a gun and Gram didn't accept guns in their household. Thats why I like the characters from the book Freak The Mighty.
I like this book because the book is very down to earth and it actually feels like your reading from Max's journal. This book is about Freak and Max in their misadventures like almost having a close shave by Tony D. Freak is hiding his sickness from Max because if Max finds out Freak will think Max won't treat him the same. But later in the book his sickness becomes serious. Freak has some sort of relationship with Max's shoulders because when they got chased by Tony D. and his gang, Freak was on Max's shoulders for the whole chase. Therefore I think Freak The Mighty is an excellent book and I hope a sequal comes out.
