From the publisher

Max’s hilarious guide to the grocery store turns an everyday errand into an adventure. Max knows everything about trips to the grocery store because his parents make him go All. The. Time. Even when they run out of little things . . . like toilet paper. So he’s pretty much an expert. Whether it’s choosing the right breakfast cereal or surviving the obstacle course that is the produce section, Max is here to help. Having trouble talking mom into finally getting that puppy she promised? Picking up a bag of dog food might just be the push she needs! And always remember to keep your eyes on the prize–the checkout lane is your last chance to grab the real essentials. Candy! Full of humor and “helpful” tips, Max Explains Everything: Grocery Store Expert is the first in a delightful new picture book series starring kid-expert Max! A Chicago Public Library Best Book of the Year “The single greatest breakdown of grocery store shopping you’ll find.” –Betsy Bird, A Fuse #8 Production * “A fun romp around the grocery store that kids will relate to and a wonderful read-aloud.” –Kirkus Reviews, starred review
