The book that I have read is the book called The Bully written by Paul Langan. This book is about a boy named Darrell who moved to California from Philadelphia. Darrel has some doubt about his new high school. His first day was exactly what he would think. Darrel would face his worst nightmare, The Bully. As the book goes on Darrell is asked to join the wrestling team. He first doubts the idea of joining but his step-father convinces him that not only does wrestling teach you how to fight, but also teaches you about adversity.

This book is great for teenagers it gives perspective of fear that is given to a bully. I liked it because it gives a story of an underdog and shows how to face adversity. It also was a great book because it draws you in with strong emotions. But lastly it's a great book because it's a realistic scenario in life and the author did a great job in showing how the main character handles it.
