Story4.5 out of 5 stars 863
He wasn't born with the name Maniac Magee. He came into this world named Jeffrey Lionel Magee, but when his parents died and his life changed, so did his name. And Maniac Magee became a legend. Even today kids talk about how fast he could run; about how he hit an inside-the-park "frog" homer; about how no knot, no matter how snarled, would stay that way once he began to untie it. But the thing Maniac Magee is best known for is what he did for the kids from the East Side and those from the West Side.

This is a beautiful story about a homeless boy who finds his home with the racial “enemy” in a home more loving than his own aunts and uncles.

The narrator pronounced ecosystem like “echosystem”. I have never heard that pronunciation before. That's it.
