Awesome book! The book was about the story of two boys who did not get along but had to. This story also touched upon blended families and some struggles that many kids face growing up in an inner city.

Love this book. Rich characterization, authentic language, believable situations, actions, and reactions. Issues of race and socioeconomic status are addressed directly, without being preachy. I think this is a fantastic middle great read that will appeal to kids and adults alike.
