The recently started "Action Group" is a group composed of 6 teenagers. They have many things to do, on the top of the list, save the world. The enthusiastic group buys a building for $1 and they didn't know what they were getting themselves into. Six tennants, which none of pay rent, leaky toilets, and more was what they got into. Just when they think that they had it bad, they find out that one of the Action Grouppies, Chris gets sent to jail because he supposedly stole some stero equiptment. Read about the 5 remaining members who fix up the building and try to make everything better, they even try to prove Chris innocent.

A group of friends called the action group saw a building that was in bad condition. They went to the owner and complaied and the owner sent them some papers for them to sign. They waited for the papers to come in, the papers came in and they siged them and thats how they came the young land lords.At the end the building had new land lords. I thik the title is good with the story, because the young land lords had adventurein the story. Irecommend this book to any one that like aventure, because the book had a lot of adventure.

I read this book way back in the 90's when I was young and I had to read it again. This book was my favorite book! Even as an adult, I still crack up at certain parts of this book. Read it, you will not be disappointed.

I'm a sixth grade teacher and my students, especially the boys, love Walter Dean Myers!
