Anotace knihy

At school, he became the target of a bully named Artie Meyers, and his gang. Artie believed he owned a girl named Cheryl who had a crush on Chad. Outraged after being humiliated by a beating in plain sight of his schoolmates, Chad stole his mother's diamond in order to buy a gun to shoot Artie in front of the student body. Friends of Chad, including Cheryl, recognized he was headed for disaster and intervened on his behalf. Direction also came from YMCA martial art's instructor who took a special interest in Chad after his mother went beseeching for help. George Merritt showed how karate could build self-confidence, as well as muscle. He encouraged his student to challenge Artie to a professional-style boxing match as a way to find respect for himself and earn respect from his adversaries. The outcome is something akin to Karate Kid with a triumphant Rocky ending.
