Summary: Max hates his picture books and he's throwing them all away. But he soon learns just how invaluable imagination is and has a change of heart. Find out why in this outrageous book that both pokes fun at and celebrates many of the classics of children's literature. Join writer and illustrator Timothy Young for this irreverent and humorous story.

Review: Absolutely wonderful book on how a child tells you all the things that he doesn't like about books but then when he tells you about a book that made him cry he realizes that it is his favorite book and has to find it and by digging through the picture books that he once thought he hated he comes to the realization that he loves all of his books and that he changed his mind.

This book is great for all kids because it shows that they change their minds all the time. It also showed illustrations from all of the different books and put Max into each book like he was a character himself. All the books that he talks about are recognizable and will resonate with readers.
