Butterball winds up having to talk to a therapist twice a week after beating up Maurice, someone Butterball had thought was a friend. Butterball is not happy with his life. His mom moved them out of New York City and away from his dad. He gets teased because of his weight.

Until Butterball hits Maurice. Now the popular guys are paying attention to him. They want him to beat up another guy. And home life is changing too, as Butterball begins to understand what's really going on with his mom.

A good story and well thought out. Not necessarily for reluctant readers, like I thought at first, but not bad.
