  • CONFLICT #1 Maniac Magee ran away from house because his uncle and aunt would not even talk to each other and were very seperated. They completely disliked each other and this made Maniac mad. On page 7 of chapter 1, Maniac screams," ' Talk! Talk, will ya! Talk! Talk! Talk!'" and then we hear that he was to go, "Never again to return to the house of two toasters."

  • you can stay with us
  • CONFLICT #2Maniac untied Cobble's knot and everybody was excited. Everybody was having a good time until Amanda and Maniac noticed something about the confetti. "She (Amanda) was holding one of the confetti scraps, gaping at it...There was printing on it, about Africa. He (Maniac) picked up another; this one mentioned ants." After that, they realized that the confetti scraps were made of Amanda's very treasured Encyclopedia A.
  • CONFLICT #3 Maniac lived with Grayson and kept him company. Maniac taught Grayson how to read and Grayson told Maniac stories. Sadly, on  December thirtieth, Grayson didn't wake up. It was worse during Grayson's funeral when nobody came except Maniac, not even the minister. Now Maniac didn't have a home again.  "So he ran." knowing that he didn't want to see what would happen if he waited any longer.

He first met Amanda who loaned him a book. He stayed in the deer pen in the zoo for shelter.On page 43 of chapter 12, it says that"...Maniac told him that he really didn't have a home unless you counted the deer shed at the zoo." Later, Amanda invited him to stay with her and her family. 
  • RESULT OF CONFLICT #2Maniac saw the Encyclopedia A incident as his fault and decided that, "He couldn't keep letting them (the Beales) pay such a price for him." Maniac ran away from the Beales this time and took shelter in the deer pen.
