Rating: Summary: My review on Freak the Mighty-mk Review: Freak the Mighty is one of my favorite books ever! I liked how exciting the book was. Something was always happening. The book taught about friendship, not judging other people, and finding something good in everyone. It was a heart-warming tale of friendship and courage. I would reccomend the book to anyone. It is a very inspiring book. I liked all the characters, but I especially liked Freak. He has all the characteristics I would look for in a friend. I would give this book five stars, and I think everyone should read it.
Rating: Summary: Who's a freak? Review: A great story about fitting in, and what it takes to be a real friend. This book was required reading for my middle school student, and as a parent I read it out of curiousity. It is well written, easy to read, and teaches a good lesson about acceptance, tolerance, enduring hardships, and seeing the person inside of the body, not just the body they are in. Great reading for kids or adults.
Rating: Summary: My Version Of Freak the Mighty November 24, 2001 Review: I really enjoyed Freak the Mighty (...). It really touched my classmates and I. Some of us were actually crying tears. But I liked the beginning and the end, I just didn't like the last part of the story. I really thought it was funny when they were calling Max, "Maxi Pad", but I didn't like the fact that they were making fun of him by that name. I Think it's just cruel. I would definitly recommend this book for someone else to read because it's really an enjoyable book to read, it has a lot of funny parts in it. But it's also touching too. This book taught me a lot. It taught me how to love myself more, how to be more sincere of myself, how to feel comfortable about myself and not to be ashamed of who I am, and it also taught me to be more concered about myself. I thought the auther's style of writing was very creating, funny, unique, interesting, and outstanding. I wish I could meet the author of this so I can tell him how amazed I was of his writing. My words can't even explain how I feel about this story. This book was definitly appropriate for my age group because it has different words in it that you've probably never heard of. And it teaches you to be more of person than you probably are to people and yourself. I think the author should have had more mysteries in it than he did. He also should have ended more positive. FREAK THE MIGHTY IS THE BEST BOOK EVER TO READ. I CAN HARDLY WAIT TO READ MAX THE MIGHTY BECAUSE I KNOW IT'LL BE AS GOOD AS FREAK THE MIGHTY. PEACE OUT YA!!

Rating: Summary: Inspiring Review: My students found this book funny, thoughtful, and inspring. My 6th & 8th graders cheered for Freak the Mighty and many of them related to the two main characters. Understanding one's relationships to the past and still doing something about the present without regard for what the future may bring, causes us all to stop and look ourselves in the eye.
Rating: Summary: Freak the Mighty Review: I really like this book. I would recommend this book to other people. I think the reson me and my classmates liked it so much is because it is easy to read. I like Freak because he is funny. like when Freak got Max a dictonary for Chirstmas. I also like Freak because he is so smart. Like when Max asks what a word means he gets him a diconary and makes him look it up.thatis why I like this book.
Rating: Summary: The Great Freak the Mighty Review: I think that "Freak the Mighty" is a fantastic book. It has a wonderful sense of humor. I really like the character Kevin(Freak) bacause he's smart, funny, adventurous, and loving. He is everything you could ever want in a friend. I can usually figure a book out by the eighth chapter if it has eight chapters, and not like to finish it. But "Freak the Mighty" was different, every chapter was a cliff hanger and I just didnt like to put it down. I thought this book was funny in many, many ways. The character of Kevin reminded me of myself because I love adventures. The thing that really disturbed me the most was how people picked on Freak for the way he looked."Freak the Mighty" taught me a valuble lesson, is that friendship can accomplish anything. I like W.R.Philbrick's tyle of writing. I love adventurous books, such as this one. This book is appropriate for the ages 10 & up. This book definatly deserves five stars.
Rating: Summary: Freak the Mighty Review: Freak the Mighty is about two boys that are very different but in a way very much the same. Max is an overly large boy who thinks he has a learning disorder. Kevin (Freak) is a big brain attcahed to a small body. In this book, these two get to be reacquainted from pre-school when kevin moves back to his old house. Max and Kevin start to become friends during the summer. They would go on "quests", as Kevin would call them. They would walk down the street with Kevin on Max's shoulders as the brain and Max would be the rest of the body that took them places. Together they made a team that nobody understood except for them. I liked Freak the Mighty because of the relationship Max and Kevin had. They were the best of friends. It was their relationship that made the book as good as it was. In parts of the book you see how close their friendship got them threw tough times. This book is also good because it shows people who have disabilities act like they don't. It lets you see that the disabled have friends and live normal lives just like everybody else. I like how Max and Kevin help each other out during the book. This book also gives out a great message. It's that even people who different may turn out to be the best friend youve ever had. I would reccommend this book to anyone.
