Max Magic

The Incredible Holiday Hideout

Stephen Mulhern , Tom Easton , Illus. Begona Fernandez Corbalan

Young Max the Magnificent is gifted with the powers of telepathy, telekinesis, the casting of illusions and mind control, but on stage restricts himself to the kind of magic expected of a magician – even if that means losing out on the £10,000 prize in a TV talent show. When two criminals he helped put behind bars are found to have escaped, Max goes into hiding at a holiday resort, where a new venture awaits. Age 6+

AN INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES #1 CHILDREN'S BESTSELLER! (The Sunday Times 19 May 2024)

The SPECTACULAR new book in the MAX MAGIC series, from superstar TV presenter and magician, Stephen Mulhern.

THE SHOW MUST GO ON!

Max Mullers is ready to take his magic skills to the next level. Then the news hits that the no-good Crayfish Twins have broken out of jail and are ready to get their revenge on Max and his friends. Luckily, Max and the gang are heading to the incredible Bupkins holiday resort for a week of seaside fun - it's the perfect place to lie low.

But staying out of the spotlight doesn't come naturally to Max, and he's soon grabbing attention at Popkins with his magic and mischief - and not in a good way! Max and his friends have managed to escape some sticky situations in the past, but will they be able to stay one step ahead of trouble this time?

Engaging black-and-white illustrations throughout and a dyslexic-friendly layout make this perfect for every child.

Don't miss Max's latest magic-filled adventure - from Stephen Mulhern and Tom Easton, with illustrations by Begona Fernandez Corbalan.
