Summary: Maniac!!!!
Review: If you like a book with excitement throughout the whole book then this is a book you would like. Its about a boy that loves to run. He runs awy from home and finds this girl walking to school one morning. He stays at her house for a while but decides to run away. Then he goes around setting sports records and starts doing unbelieveable things such as, catching a football like hands down, untieing a knot that nobody has ever untied and hitting the very first inside the park frogball homer. Then he lives in the locker room of the legion field baseball park and becomes very good friends witha man that work there. If you want to find out the rest you should get this book. Its full of action and suspense.

Summary: Maniac
Review: Jeffery Magee, a home less boy, lost his parents when their trolley plunged off its tracks when he was three. He went to live with his aunt and uncle and ran 200 miles to Two Mills because they didn't get along. He earned the name maniac when he brought the segregated town together. He was the first person roamed both sides of the town unaware of what he was doing. This is a really good book, and I think you should read it if not already.

Summary: The best book i have ever read!!!!
Review: His parents died, and then he went to live with his uncle and aunt. They always fought about things so he ran away. This book got my attention in the first chapter. I recommend this book for at least teenagers and adults. There are some complicated parts in the story. The story stays on track and always tells about the same thing. This was one of the best books I have ever read.

Summary: A wouderful book
Review: The title is Maniac Magee, and the author is Jerry Spinelli. The award that Maniac Magee won was John Newbery Medal. I give this book 5 stars. Here is an excerpt, Mars bar Thompson held up his candy bar, an inch away from maniac's lips.Wanna bite thanks dead silence along the street. Maniac has done the unthinkable. The main characters are Maniac Magee, and Mars Bars. I think this book was good because it had some action in it. I think you will like Maniac because he is brave and kind.

Summary: Maniac Rescued, Finds A Home!
Review: Maniac is a white kid who runs away from his aunt and uncle's house because there was no love. Then he meets the Beale family, who are black, and he lives with them for a while. But he doesn't stay there forever. Read the book if you want to find out what happens next. The book is about overcoming prejudice, finding love, happiness, and the meaning of home. The book holds the reader's interest from the beginning to the end.
