Max and Ruby's Midas Another Greek Myth

Rosemary Wells brings her beloved Max and Ruby characters to a classic Greek myth, with a twist. Ruby, ever the responsible older sister, attempts to teach Max a lesson about moderation by reading him an 'altered' version of the King Midas story, hoping to deter his love for sweets. The book playfully explores sibling dynamics and the power of storytelling, offering a gentle, humorous take on a cautionary tale. It's a delightful read-aloud that parents will appreciate for its subtle message and children for the familiar, endearing antics of Max and Ruby.
