Description
Reinventing yourself takes humor, heart, and a TON of footnotes!
Max is a good kid but you wouldn t know that if you met him at the boring family camp his parents dragged him to over the summer. There, for a few exciting weeks, Max reinvents himself as Mad Max and gains a bad-boy reputation for being daring, cool, and fearless.
But when Max returns home, he finds it s easier to be fearless with strangers than it is among friends, and he is not particularly proud of the way his behavior over the summer hurt people. Can he find a way to merge his adventurous alter ego with his true identity as a good guy?
Peppered with humorous handwritten footnotes and doodles throughout, Anyway* perfectly captures the viewpoint of a young teen doing his best to find his place in the world and an ideal balance between wise guy and wimp.
