Book Review: Live For Today!
Summary: 5 Stars
People should appreciate every day they have because you never know what is going to happen tomorrow. In Freak the Mighty, Rodman Philbrick teaches readers this very lesson through the friendship of two very different boys, Kevin and Max. Kevin, a young physically disabled boy nicknamed Freak because of his short stature, learned at a very early age he wasn't going to live very long. Every day he faces new challenges but yet he still manages to find wonderful moments of beauty, humor and adventure in the most mundane of activities. Unlike Kevin, Max is a young learning disabled boy nicknamed Kicker because before meeting Kevin, he always used his hands to communicate any feeling. Despite their differences, their friendship grew and together, they became "Freak the Mighty" spending every waking moment together going on "quests" in King Arthur's kingdom (Freak's imaginary world), temporarily sharing Max's "legs" and Kevin's "brain".Book Review: What a Freak

Have you ever had a friend that is very special to you? Have you read Freak the Mighty, well I have and it is awesome. Rodman Philbrick probably one of the best authors in the world or probably in all the schools that have this book. If you read this book I know you will like it a lot.Its about a boy named Freak and a boy named Mighty who become very close friends. Freak is very smart, but is he is small. Mighty is big and kind of dumb, but really isnt. I liked it so much Im about to read the second version of it.
Oh yeah, by the way, did I ever tell you that there is a sequel? Well I cant tell you it because that will just ruin the whole thing. This is a really funny, sad, happy, and at the same time confusing book. You will understand what Im saying when you read it. This book makes you feel things that probably you never experienced. Well I hope you will enjoy the book and really understand it.

I like Freak the Mighty because; I got into the story and never wanted to stop reading it. It had a great story line. As a 12-year-old, books normally do not interest me, but with Freak the Mighty I actually got into it. It is about this little boy who is smart but crippled. His name is Kevin although everyone calls him Freak. Freak has a good friend named Maxwell. Everyone calls him Max. While, Kevin is smart and short, Max is just the opposite. Max is a Learning Disabled child. For most of his educational life he was in a special school. Max is also a very tall, large child like his dad. Max and Freak go on adventures together. They call themselves Freak the Mighty. When they go on these adventures they pretend they are in an enchanted forest with dragons, and that they need to cross moats. Pure fantasy right? Well, they also come across some adventures that they will never forget.Book Review: Freak The Mighty

"I never had a brain until Freak came along and let me borrow his for a while, and that's the truth, the whole truth...". "Together they were Freak the Mighty". Freak the Mighty is a wonderful book. It is book with a lot of imagination and it really gets you in the adventure. Once you start reading it you won't want to stop. You book will wonder what is going to happen next. Freak the mighty are a really entertaining story. Kevin or should I say Freak is a kid with a gigantic brain who knows almost everything. Freak is small for his age. He has read and memorized the dictionary. Max is very big for his age but he is learning disabled; kids say he has no brain. They sing to him: "Killer Kane, Killer Kane, had a kid who got no brain". Killer Kane is his dad his real name is Kenny Kane. Max lives with his grandparent: gram and grim.Freak the mighty is a book every person should read.Book Review: Freak the Mighty

Freak the Mighty by Rodman Philbrick. I understand that even though somebody mihty look wierd or be kind of dumb they still can be your friend. Max is this tall kid that is not the brighties kid around. Max lives with grandma and grandpa he don't really live in the cousies place beacause he lives in their basement. Kevin is this short kid who lives next door to Max and Kevin is this very shot kid. At the begining of the book Max and Kevin were enemies. The author solved the problem by making Max and Kevin become best friends. Since Kevin was so short and Max was so tall Max use to ride Kevin on his sholders and Kevin was like the brain and Max is like a giant. This is a good book because at the begining two friends that did not know they were friends became friends and they became friends and they atteched like glue. I would recommend this book to somebody who like adventure books.
