We love Max & Ruby! My daughter was so surprised to see the TV version of the story after having read the book a milliion times!
Wonderful 2008-03-11
My daughter (3) and I love this book. The story is so cute and the mixture between drawing and realistic photos is very visually stimulating.
We are hooked on Rosemary Wells.
Max is Fun 2008-01-08
I recently checked out Max's Christmas at the library and my daughter loved it. I knew that after christmas she would still want Max, so I bought her Max Cleans Up. This is very cute story and you just gotta love Max and his sister Ruby. We also have Ruby's Beauty Shop and it also is a very cute story.
Cute! 2007-12-02
My son really enjoys this story. He thinks it's funny that Max sticks everything in his pocket while Ruby is trying to clean his room. Kind of mirrors the nonsense that goes on when trying to get my son to clean his room. ;-)
Rosemary Wells ROCKS 2007-08-14
My daughter is ALL cbout Max. Max, Max, MAX...and yes, I've read this book to her SO many times I know it by heart.
The Nick Jr. show is OK (why did they change Ruby's voice? ARGH!) but the books are TERRIFIC! Rosemary Wells is a phenomenal children's writer and as an adult I enjoy all of her writing...that's impressive!
These books will be classics.
Luv it 2006-06-26
Max's room is a mess. There is sand from his toy dump truck, a swarm of escaped ant farm ants, a rotten Easter egg, and a stray piece of gum-on-a-string. It's definitely time to clean up. Max's always-efficient sister, Ruby, is quick to take charge--and of course Max wants to help. But since Max has ideas of his own, the clean up doesn't turn out exactly as Ruby has planned....
As always Max and Ruby books are a joy

This book is as cute as the other Max and Ruby books. You can't go wrong with these stories!!!!!!!
What a darling book! 2005-01-30
This book is a great tool to use to help kids clean up their rooms. It is really cute, watching Ruby order Max around to get him to help her clean his room and, typical of curious little boys, Max's room is filled with all sorts of neat "boy things." Like the year-old Easter egg hidden in his underwear drawer (which he shoves into his pocket while his sister isn't looking), ants from his ant farm running loose (they get into the pocket too), gooey bubble making stuff, old chewing gum, etc. It's just so cute to see how big Max's pocket is growing with all the neat "stuff" he's hiding from Ruby because he's afraid that she'll throw it all away. This is certainly a must read for nothing else but the cuteness of the story. It reminded me of Linus and Lucy from Peanuts when I first read it, but Ruby isn't quite as "stern" as Lucy. This one is read all the time in our house and a definite keeper!

Max cleans up in his very own way. What a great help he is when cleaning. Little Max does a great job.
Presents another delightful sibling encounter 2001-03-12
Max's room is a mess and Ruby wants to clean it; but Max has special ideas about his room - can he preserve his beloved but funky treasures? This presents another delightful sibling encounter.
