Bookroo's summary

Max's room is a disaster zone, with melting Popsicles and escaped ants. Ruby, his sister, takes charge of the cleanup, but Max has his own mischievous ideas. As Max's unconventional methods unfold, will he manage to outsmart Ruby once more? Dive into this playful tale of sibling rivalry and unexpected solutions.

From the publisher

Max’s room is a mess! There’s a Popsicle melting in the closet, a tube of opened Miracle Bubbles on the floor, and the ant farm ants have escaped under the bed! It’s definitely time to clean up. Max’s sister, Ruby, is quick to take charge, and of course Max wants to help. But Max has his own ideas about picking up his room, so things don’t turn out exactly as Ruby planned. Children will cheer as Max innocently and humorously outsmarts his older sister once again.
