(3) YA Wise-cracking Elvin from Slot Machine is back, maneuvering the perils of overweight adolescence with the help of pals Frankie, Mikie, and his sharp-as-nails mother while dealing with hemorrhoids, bullies, a semi-comatose dog, and sweaty-palmed dances with their sister school. The verbal by-play is hugely entertaining, and the teenaged sweethearts act their ages to perfection.
