UNDERDOGS By: Markus Zusak

Underdogs By: Markus Zusak
Cameron and Ruben Wolfe are not star athletes. They are not cunning, nor geniuses, nor overly ambitious. Constantly getting into fights and coming up with half-baked schemes of robbing dentist offices and grocery stores, Cameron and Ruben are pretty much a disappointment. But even at their worst, the brothers are intensely loyal to each other. So when Cameron falls deeply in love with Ruben's girlfriend, the strenghth of their relationship is pushed to its breaking point. As the brothers duke it out, friendship, love and loyalty are put to the ultimate test, and Cameron and Ruben learn what it really means to be a family. Ages 12 and up. $19.99 Arthur Levine Reviewed by Maggie age 16
