From the Series Max Todd

  • Interest Level: Kindergarten - Grade 4
  • Reading Level: Grade 2

Max is the only kid in class without a best friend.

Lucky for him, there’s a new kid in school, but after Max makes a bad first impression, he is going to need a second chance to befriend Shiv. While Max’s games usually keep his Super Fidgets at bay, this one is all about showing Shiv what a great friend he would be. After the game leads to terrible second, third, and fourth impressions, Max learns that making new friends is not about playing games but about being yourself.
