The Trouble With Max

By Marjorie Stenning

Why does everything seem to go wrong for eleven-year-old Max? All he wants is to fit in at school, have a few good friends and not be made fun of by the cool kids . Even his budding friendship with Cleo, a new girl in his year six class, ends in disaster. When his mum starts seeing a new boyfriend, Max s life only gets worse. He doesn t like Jeff, and Jeff certainly doesn t like him. Jeff makes it plain Max is in the way, and to make matters worse his mum spends so much time with Jeff she doesn t have much time for Max any more. His feelings of isolation lead him to befriend a group of older boys and join in some of their activities. But are they really friends? Then Max meets some-one who takes a real interest in him. Could this be the turning point in his life?
