Thank goodness it was summer vacation ;) Max is still stuck at the school dealing with three burglars.
Poor Max Crumbly! Silliness ensues as we revisit Max Crumbly still trying to recover his dad's comic book while three thugs are vandalizing the middle school. He teamed up with another girl and successfully have all thieves tied up. The actual events of the story were really nifty, too...the problem I had with it was that Max didn't sound like a real kid to me, at least not one in an era where people use cell phones.
Will our hero Max be able to deal with those burglars and leave the school?
“my butt cheeks had frozen into two big chunks of ice.”“YOU ARE A HERO! This wacky middle-school misadventure. Seeing that I read these for a light, easy read when I've got nothing else, it wasn't bad! SO I was going back and reading this, and I realized it was actually a pretty good book! Even given its conscious nod to comicbooks, the plotting is implausible and the prose often painfully artless("That's when I excitedly came up with a brilliant plan!
The most surprising part in this book was definitely when Max had tried to escape the middle school, safely with his dad’sJust like the previous book in this series, this book was filled with, embarrassment, surprise, and most importantly, another major cliffhanger!

Do you believe that this item violates a copyright? My 9 year old LOVED this book and it's gotten him reading more Welcome back. It’s good if you like Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Those traps were really great. We found out in the morning that even though he tried to go to sleep at bed time he just couldn't so he stayed up and finished it that night!
Where we last left off, you was gliding through the schools ac vents, when he suddenly reaches a dead end!
In this book it starts by Max falling from the vents into the burglars pizza which they ordered because they were hungry. However I overall liked it and would recommend it for those who aren't the strongest readers.My opinion on the story is pretty good. They said this is similar in that it's not too difficult and funny.
In these strange days of quarantine and isolation, books can be a mode of transport.
Max goes throughout the school with his friend Erin on the phone to help him with the cameras to see the burglars and help him deal with the burglars by making plans.

The main story is, Max Crumbly is trying to escape the homeschooling with his grandma, to what he think is the better world of public school! In this book we got brought back to where we lead off in the other book. i think this is a great book for all ages and it leaves such great and dramatic cliff hangers and i cant wait for the next one tok come out +you learn a lot too and it teachs that you can fix andearn frokm mistakes Then they lower moose into the kitchen and rap him in plastic food rap. Although this book was amazing, there were some points throughout the book that were plain out confusing. Kyle Beltran's animated portrayal of Max helps bring the text to life so listeners (almost) won't miss Russell's amusing illustrations. Not to mention this book has a major cliffhanger. Which means we don’t have time to be babysitting some silly kid who thinks he’s a Saturday-morning cartoon. They can't wait for the 2nd book. The Misadventures of Max Crumbly 2: Middle School Mayhem Oh well, anything to make more books, I guess...anyway not bad, but I'd really like a series more like Dork Diarys!
