The Book of Lost Things - Mister Max

Ingenious boy becomes a resourceful solutioneer.

If you enjoy stories where characters cleverly navigate through uncertainties and challenges using their wits and creative talents, you'd appreciate Max's journey. As a "solutioneer," Max not only finds missing items but helps others find solutions to a myriad of problems. His adventures are infused with wit, mystery, and the charm of self-discovery. This book isn't just about finding lost things; it's about finding one's place in the world, which makes it a heartening read for both young and seasoned explorers of life.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Max Starling's theatrical father likes to say that at twelve a boy is independent. He also likes to boast (about his acting skills, his wife's acting skills, a fortune only his family knows is metaphorical), but more than anything he likes to have adventures. Max Starling's equally theatrical mother is not a boaster but she enjoys a good adventure as much as her husband. When these two disappear, what can sort-of-theatrical Max and his not-at-all theatrical grandmother do? They have to wait to find out something, anything, and to worry, and, in Max's case, to figure out how to earn a living at the same time as he maintains his independence. This is the first of three books, all featuring the mysterious Mister Max.
