Description

"Horace Hobart is the new kid on the block in New York City and he's scared. His sister warns that the scary Purple Falcon Gang is going to cream. He puts on his wild uncle's dragon jacket, covers a sty with an eye-patch and swaggers out. Though an amazing coincidence in the first hour of school, he takes the name ACE and fools the Falcons. Then Ac falls for Raven, the Falcon's beautiful buddy. Looking tough now, he's recruited to act in a low-budget film and gets parts for his friends. During a night shoot, one of the Falcons disappears when the Piranha Gang disrupts the filming. Ace has to confront the bloodthirsty bunch to get the kid back. Then he has to figure a way to stop wearing the sweaty eye-patch in front of his friends. Even if you're NEVER SCARED like Ace was, you can read this book just for laughs." From Product Description
