Extraordinarily powerful, uplifting and memorable, the story of
"Freak the Mighty" explores an unlikely friendship, and finds
optimism and humour in a story of great poignancy. Bring your
tissues.Maxwell Kane is feared and bullied because of his mental
slowness and enormous size. But this is not the only cross he has
to bear; Maxwell's father is in jail for murdering his mother.
Kevin is smart, quirky and funny with insatiable curiosity and zest
for life but he suffers from a rare genetic condition, which
inhibits the growth of his body. Yet the combination of Kevin and
Maxwell is formidable, when together they become Freak the Mighty.
