This is the story of Jeffrey Magee, an athlete, a rebel, a survivor, an orphan, a boy looking for a home.
After his parents die, Jeffrey lived with his Aunt and Uncle until he grew tired of watching them not get along and ran away. He spent 11 months on his own and traveled 200 miles to the town of Two Mills.
In Two Mills, Jeffrey Magee becomes Maniac Magee. He earns the new moniker as he disregards social norms, makes unlikely friends, and finds a home.
