A Michael L. Printz Honor BookTroy Billings is seventeen, 296 pounds, friendless, utterly miserable, and about to step off a New York subway platform in front of an oncoming train. Until he meets Curt MacCrae, an emaciated, semi-homeless, high school dropout guitar genius, the stuff of which Lower East Side punk rock legends are made. Never mind that Troys dad thinks Curts a drug addict and Troys brother thinks Troys the biggest (literally) loser in Manhattan. Soon, Curts recruited Troy as his new drummer-even though Troy cant play the drums. Together, Curt and Troy will change the world of punk, and Troys own life, forever."Troy's voice is candid, irreverent, realistic and humorous. [A] wonderful, engrossing tale."-SLJAn ALA BBYAA BCCB Blue Ribbon BookA Booklist Editors' ChoiceAn SLJ Best Book of the YearA Miami Herald Best Book of the Year
