Both the book and the movie "Maniac Magee" follow the story of a young boy named Jeffrey Lionel Magee who faces various challenges and prejudices in a racially divided town. They both explore themes of friendship, belonging, and overcoming adversity. However, the movie adaptation may have condensed or altered certain elements from the book for the sake of storytelling.

I don't really know how I would explain it. I think you guys can watch it but it is not really the same compared to the book. I think you guys should read the book first and then watch the movie. I think it was not great.
