Reviews

[Bea · Rating 3 out of 5]

Max and Fred never did figure out how to share but an okay story.

[Kayla · Rating 2 out of 5]

Louise's little cousin's name is Fred in the book, but it's Morris whenever he appears in the show. It seems that this particular book is based on the show (rather than the other way around), so I'm not sure why they made the change. It was confusing for my kids, so we read it as Morris instead.

Part of the continuing adventures of Max and Ruby that my Maddie enjoyes. A safe bet for a quick read.
