About this item
Every kid dreams of having super powers--Max discovers he really has them! But will he be able to solve the mystery behind Marsh Creek? "Muddy Max takes that eternal struggle between kids and parents---whether to play in or stay out of mud puddles---and turns it into an epic tale full of secrets and superpowers and one very important lesson: Don't eat mud. It's earthworm poop." --Matthew Holm, co-creator of Babymouse and Squish "What happens when genius-writer Elizabeth Rusch and super-artist Mike Lawrence get together? A book you won't be able to put down---or wash off! Not only does Muddy Max ooze adventure, it can also teach all of us something about bravery, science, and earthworm poop." --Bart King, author of The Big Book of Superheroes and The Big Book of Gross Stuff Max may be the cleanest middle-school kid in the world--his neat-freak parents make certain of that.
