Max is super tall, and Kevin is super tiny, and they're both misfits. Max's dad is in jail, and he doesn't feel like he's very special or very smart. Kevin has major health problems, but what he lacks in body he makes up for in brains. Together, they are Freak the Mighty, and they help each other through some tough times. I guess I'm just kind of over the crazy smart little kid stereotype a la Jerry Maguire. A short, sweet, little read, but not too exciting for me.
