Fat Kid Rules the World

Troy 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 TroyA's dad thinks CurtA's a drug addict and TroyA's brother thinks TroyA's the biggest (literally) loser in Manhattan. Soon, CurtA's recruited Troy as his new drummerA-even though Troy canA't play the drums. Together, Curt and Troy will change the world of punk, and TroyA's own life, forever.Going, K. L. is the author of 'Fat Kid Rules the World', published 2004 under ISBN 9780142402085 and ISBN 0142402087.
