Freak the Mighty - Discussion Questions:

Freak the Mighty Discussion Questions:
Chapters 1-4
  • What words would you use to characterize:
    • Max?
    • Kevin?
  • At the beginning of the book, both Max and Kevin would be most likely be described as ‘outsiders?’  How/why did that change?
  • Closely read pages middle 22 - bottom 24,  (“...I just got a call from Gwen Avery…” to  “like there is a hand inside my stomach and the hand is, you know, making a fist.” 
    • Analyze the characters actions and the author’s word choices.   What is the meaning of this passage?
  • What do you understand about Max’s situation?
