Bubba and Giganto: Odds Against Us
Bubba hates itwhen his dad gets a contract for a new project. That means uprooting the familyfrom one city and moving to another. Attending a new school is a major petpeeve of his. His smart alecky nature attracts the bullies in every school he’sattended.
On the first day of school, Bubbabumps into this rather large student. Fearing a confrontation, he wears histough guy attitude and waits for the punches to begin. Remarkably, the newstudent apologizes and Bubba and David (aka Giganto as Bubba eventuallynicknames him) become best friends.
Bubba and Giganto try out for thehigh school soccer team and that’s when trouble begins. Bubba knew eventuallyhe’d meet the bullies of the school and he was right.
In the first initial weeks, Bubbalearns about a death that occurred the previous year, faces the bullies onseveral occasions, helps Giganto practice soccer before tryouts, and challengesthe bullies to a scrimmage.
Little did Bubba know Gigantoheld a secret, one that will place Giganto in a deadly situation.
