Description

Jeffrey and his friend Ben are looking forward to spending Christmas vacation home alone while their parents attend a party. The boys have been given permission to stay by themselves without a babysitter, and they have big plans for their time together. This book is the third in a series written by Megan Stine and H. William Stine for middle grade readers.

Quick Summary

Max's Secret Formula celebrates kid-powered independence as two brothers discover that being home alone sounds amazing until the chaos begins. Kids will root for Jeffrey and Ben's clever schemes, laugh at the comedic mishaps, and stay up late turning pages during the brothers' holiday hijinks. If your kid loves the sibling teamwork and holiday mishaps in "Home Alone" or The Diary of a Tooth Fairy a Tooth Fairy 1960s Teenager a Victorian Apprentice-style humor of "Diary of a Tooth Fairy a Tooth Fairy Wimpy Kid," they'll adore this Christmas vacation caper. Perfect for ages 8-12 in grades 4-7 who want a quick, wacky read with short chapters and plenty ofkid-friendly mischief.
