The Underdog

The uplifting debut novel from Markus Zusak, author of the international bestseller, The Book Thief.

My name’s Cameron Wolfe. My older brother Ruben gets me into plenty of trouble. I get Rube into as much trouble as he gets me into. That’s me.

Cameron and Ruben Wolfe are brothers. But what Cameron really wants is to meet a girl – a real girl, not like the ones in the lingerie magazines.

My name’s Cameron Wolfe. I have a little bit of sense. I don’t have much sense. My older brother Ruben gets me into plenty of trouble. I get Rube into as much trouble as he gets me into. I have a family, yes, that doesn’t really function without tomato sauce. That’s me.

Cameron and Ruben Wolfe are brothers. They spend most of their time throwing one-handed boxing matches (they only have the one pair of gloves) and plotting to rob the local dentists. But what Cameron really wants is to meet a girl – a real girl, not like the ones in the lingerie magazines. But who could ever love an underdog like Cameron Wolfe?
