Max is a dog who was adopted by a very nice family and who, along with another dog named Annie thought things were just fine -- until the family brings home a puppy called Tak! An unhappy Max lays down a lot of rules to young Tak, rules that don't permit any fun stuff to happen. Until Tak shows Max that the two of them can be friends and have a great deal of rather messy fun together. Charmingly written in a rhyming text by reading specialist Sandra J. Philipson and profusely illustrated by syndicated cartoonist and children's magazine and book illustrator Jenny Campbell, Max's Rules is specifically recommended reading for anyone having a new baby added to their family, those families who are adopting a baby, and those families who are bringing an adopted animal into their home. The additions of enrichment activities including a Readers' Theater, word and vocabulary builders, and writing suggestions, make Max's Rules a particularly appropriate acquisition for school library collections as well.
