About the book
Rosemary Wells's original four books, brought out in 1979, were the first high-quality board books published. Combined with the second four, published in 1985, total sales are over one million! And Mrs. Wells's followers are legion. Now she has completely reillustrated her eight delightful Max board books in her exciting and vibrant full-color style. The highly imaginative stories, loved by millions of young children, are even funnier with the new artwork. These are perfect first books, especially with the increased focus on the importance of reading to babies and toddlers, a cause that Mrs. Wells has been wholeheartedly promoting for several years with her "The Most Important 20 Minutes of Your Day" reading initiative.Ruby tries every trick she knows to get Max to eat his egg, finally demonstrating how yummy it is herself!
