Based on the antics of a real god named Max, Max's Wild Goose Chase is an adventure story set in and around the Chagrin River Valley.

Goosie Rough Rock, the goose with a big grudge, plots to get even with Max, but the ending takes an unexpected twist. The book is beautifully illustrated and is appropriate for Kindergarten through fourth grade. The back pages of the book contain fun questions and writing prompts so children can practice writing and create their own stories.
