Praise For…

"Short chapters and the bilingual format (English text is on the left with Spanish translation on facing pages) make this book a quick read, great for reluctant readers... Readers who enjoyed the first title will be pleased to continue reading about Max and his family." -- Kirkus Reviews

"Max's transition into sixth grade drives this adventure and coming-of-age novel's narrative arc, framing a plot that focuses on relationships that a range of readers will connect with: family, friends, and first love, among others. Garza employs plenty of humor and a first-person voice that rings true to Maximilian's character... With its bilingual text and universally relatable treatment of Latino culture, it's an outstanding choice." -- School Library Journal
