This critically acclaimed novel, loosely inspired by 50 Cent's own adolescence, shows how a kid becomes a bully.
“50 Cent is the perfect voice to speak to such an important issue affecting our youth.”—Russell Simons, co-founder of Def Jam Recordings
“Unrepentant, unpretentious, and authentic.”—Publishers Weekly
“Eye-opening and compassionate.”—VOYA
Butterball doesn't have it easy. He’s teased about his weight. He hates the Long Island suburb his mom moved them to so she could go back to school and start her life over. He wishes he still lived with his dad in New York City, where there’s always something happening, even if his dad doesn’t have much time for him. Still, that’s not why he beat up another kid on the playground with a sock full of batteries.
Butterball’s lips are sealed about what happened that day. But some tales can’t help being told. And this is one of them.
