Bookroo's summary
When Stuff moves to 116th Street, he meets Fast Sam, Cool Clyde, and Gloria, forming an unforgettable bond. This year, they face unexpected challenges, from brushes with the law to romantic entanglements. As they navigate these trials, will their friendship endure the chaos and triumphs of youth?
From the publisher
Stuff doesn’t know anyone when he first moves to 116th Street. But all of that changes when he meets Fast Sam, Cool Clyde, and Gloria. Stuff and the gang grow close that eventful year, and nothing is ever like it again. That’s the year modern science gets them all in jail; Stuff falls in love and is unfaithful; and Cool Clyde and Fast Sam win the dance contest-almost.
