Summary: In a town split by racial tension, Jeffrey Lionel "Maniac" Magee becomes a legend. Orphaned by a freak accident, he escapes his unhappy home life by running—running so fast and far that he becomes a myth. As Maniac races through the town, he defies the barriers that divide its people, performing feats that challenge the status quo. Can one boy's extraordinary journey bridge the gap between two worlds, or will the town's deep-seated prejudices prove too strong? Discover the power of one boy's determination to change the world around him.
