About This Book
In Rosemary Wells' classic style, "Max Cleans Up" follows the ever-mischievous Max as his incredibly messy room becomes the target of his older sister Ruby's organizational efforts. From a melting popsicle to an escaped ant farm, Max's room is a true challenge. While Ruby attempts to impose order, Max finds his own unique, often counterproductive, ways to "help." This humorous chapter book is perfect for children aged 4-11, offering a lighthearted look at sibling dynamics, independence, and the joys of a child's imagination, even when it comes to chores.
