So if you’re the type who gets FREAKED OUT over this kind of stuff (or comic book cliffhangers), you probably shouldn’t read my journal. . . . Hey, I’m not trying to be all super DRAMATIC. But by the time you read this, I’ll probably be ROTTING in PRISON and working on my NEW escape plan! . . . He was first homeschooled by his grandmother until his parents agreed to send him to a public school nearby, South Ridge Middle School. Rachel Renée Russell is de auteur van de serie ‘Dagboek van een muts’. De avonturen van Max Kruimel, superheld op sokken is haar nieuwe serie. Sinds kort zit Max op de middelbare school en

Max has an older sister named Megan, who often annoys him, a younger brother named Oliver, who has made a few minor appearances in the Dork Diaries series, and a cousin named Wilbur, whom Max often receives hand-me-down clothing from. Some of the key points and messages I am trying to make is that there are a lot of relatable points in this story and that even though the story isn’t very realistic the concept and a lot of conflicts can be relatable if you look at them in the right way. There is a lot of tension and the book even ends with a cliffhanger. Tue book also has some satisfying moments where you get the satisfaction of beating up the bad guys. It also as a lot of funny moments to make you laugh. Dit eerste deel van Max Kruimel lijkt wat verhaal betreft op de serie Dagboek van een muts, nu met een jongen in de hoofdrol. Het boek is makkelijk te lezen, vaak voor kinderen die minder van lezen houden en bevat zoals verwacht veel tekeningen die wat wild overkomen. Aan lezen komen deze kinderen nauwelijks toe, ze zullen van rechts naar links, van onder naar boven vooral de tekeningen bekijken of beter gezegd de voor hen grappige tekeningen lezen. Om de spanningsboog vast te houden mag voor deze doelgroep het boek minder bladzijden bevatten. Door het lettertype en de lijnen onder de tekst heeft het boek een onrustiger lay-out vergeleken met een boek zonder striptekeningen.Can our heroes use their supersmarts and uncanny creativity to build two antigravity energy beams from the random recyclable junk in the Dumpster?!

The Misadventures of Max Crumbly is about a character, Maxwell Crumbly, who keeps a diary about his challenges in middle school. He is introduced in Dork Diaries: Tales From A Not-So Perfect Pet Sitter.But I’ll let you in on a secret. Getting bombed by an angry bird is NOT cool. It’s just . . . NASTY!! So yeah, I am not impressed with this book, and very disappointed. I had hoped for a new series to enjoy as I didn't enjoy the other series by this author any more (it just kept being the same story over and over again with meh characters). Wouldn't recommend this book. She stared at Max when he stared at her. She helped Max with his papers when he dropped them. She was impressed by one of his pictures and told him to paint for the school play "The ice princess". Okay, that FUNK-TASTIC stench I’m smelling is actually the Dumpster, not my life. But STILL . . . !

Dork Diaries, written in a diary format, uses doodles, drawings, and comic strips to chronicle the daily life of the main character, Nikki Maxwell, as she struggles to fit in and survive middle school. The series is based on Russell's middle school experiences. Her daughter, Nikki, is the illustrator of the series. The main character, Nikki Maxwell, is named after her daughter. [1] There’s only ONE thing more HUMILIATING than being TRAPPED at my SCHOOL in a NASTY Dumpster in the middle of the NIGHT. And that’s being trapped with ERIN MADISON, a cute computer whiz and the SMARTEST kid in the entire school. And . . . NO! I’m NOT crushing on her! Maxwell "Max" Crumbly: The main protagonist of the series. He was first homeschooled by his grandmother until his parents agreed to send him to a public school nearby, South Ridge Middle School. Max is a kind person who is loyal to his friends but he is often a coward when it comes to Doug bullying him. His father is a comic book addict and auto repairman, and has comics worth a lot of money. His mother is a nurse and coddles her children heavily. He also has a secret crush on Erin, but in the books, he tries to deny it. Het verhaal is voor de recenserende volwassenen wat ongeloofwaardig, want wie lukt het om zich twee keer op een dag te laten opsluiten in een schoolkluisje door je vijand en dat op vrijdagavond. Max Kruimel is natuurlijk zeer inventief en weet te ontsnappen waarna hij allerlei doldwaze avonturen te wachten staat en hij daardoor niet naar huis kan gaan. Bij de juiste doelgroep van jongens en meiden vanaf 10 jaar zal dit vluchtige, fantasievolle verhaal vast wèl aanslaan. Naar deel 2 dat in 2018 zal uitkomen zullen deze kinderen uitzien, mede omdat dit deel hen zal vertellen hoe het avontuur in deel 1 zal aflopen.

I saw this title on a list of graphic novel recommendations, but it seems to be almost a cross between regular fiction and graphic. On to what I love about the book. I love the illustrations which have a unique style which I love thanks to Dork Diaries. I do love the reality feel of Max's adventure, which gets scary rather fast. I love how Brandon from Dork Diaries is worked into Max's life – having a slight crossover for the wellknown series adds a sense of familiarity, even though it's a totally different school. Technology is used well as plot points, there's some ridiculous scenarios for humour, and some heart in mouth moments which I think are greater than similar plot points in Dork Diaries. Please be careful if you eat or drink while reading this book, there's one part where you may be put off your food. I thankfully wasn't eating at the time of the part where poor Max suffers. Overall it's a great read, and I can see potential for all readers to enjoy it for different reasons. years of homeschooling, Max dreamed of being a superhero here; instead, he’s school-bully Doug “Thug”
