Join Max as he writes a letter to ask for a bright red motorcycle. Unfortunately the postman cannot make head nor tail of the letter. Can Grandma decipher Max's letter to help make his dream come... This description may be from another edition of this product.
My son got this book Easter morning. We've read it 15 times so far today! It has flaps you can lift so that you can read the letters Max and Ruby and Grandma write to each other. It's so cute and so original. We love it.
Max and Ruby at their best.

This is a cute book. My girls (5, 3 and 3) all love it. Fairly sturdy lift the flaps (ours haven't torn) allow you to read letters sent back and forth between grandma and Max. Grandma doesn't quite know what Max is writing...but through persistant problem solving (similar to Max's grocery list in Bunny Cakes) Max keeps writing and Grandma figures out that Max wants a Sand Spitter motorcycle. Max thinks he is writing Santa the whole time (the mailman thinks Max is writing grandma, so he delivers them to her). If you are a person that finds Ruby a little too much, she's makes a few discouraging comments to Max about writing Santa in the summer (not anything particularly mean) and she is smiling for Max when a package from Santa arrives in the end. Nice touch...Max writes Santa a thank you note on the last page.
Good book

this was not a bad book. I would recommend this book to a young child that likes a humerous story.
