The Max Science Adventure Series

The first children's books to be read from space!

Science Adventure series books — Max Goes to the Moon, Max Goes to Mars, and Max Goes to Jupiter — break down the boundary that has traditionally separated large format picture books from books that focus on science education. The beautifully illustrated stories appeal to all ages as Max (the dog) and his friends use their space adventures to bring a message of inspiration and hope to the human race. At the same time, "Big Kid Box" sidebars provide older children and parents with clear explanations of the sophisticated science that lies behind the scenes. The books always conclude with an activity suitable for family or classroom use.

"...a perfect springboard for many discussions, experiments, and lessons."
- National Science Teachers Association

Inspired by the unique combination of literacy and science in the Max Science Adventure series, Max's Ice Age Adventure was written by Logan Weinman for an elementary school district writing contest. With science added by Max series author Jeffrey Bennett, you'll see why this book was chosen by Creative Child Magazine as their 2009 Educational Book of the Year.
