A brand-new series from #1 NYT bestselling Dork Diaries author Rachel Renee Russell! Introducing Max Crumbly, the new Dork on the block…
Max is about to face the scariest place he’s ever been – South Ridge Middle School! He has been home-schooled by his grandmother until now, and he’s begged his parents to finally let him start attending a real school. He’s starting to question that choice, though, with the Doug aka Thug Thurston Problem. As in, Thug keeps stuffing Max in his locker. If only Max could be like the hero in all the comics he likes to read – or the ones he draws – and magically escape the locker and defeat Thug. Unfortunately, Max’s uncanny, almost superhuman ability to smell pizza from a block away won’t exactly save any lives or foil bad guys. But that doesn’t mean Max won’t do his best to be the hero his school needs!Praise for Max Crumbly:

I think the book wasn't bad after all though I am keen to know what happens next. It was a fiction and I loved the character,Erin Madison for offering to help Max. I would recommend this book to someone else

Max Crumbly is about to face the scariest place he's ever been: South Ridge Middle School. There's a lot that's great about his new school, but there's also one big problem--Doug, the school bully whose hobby is stuffing Max in his locker. If only Max could be like the hero in his favorite comics.

This book is yet another fictional book and is all about school life. I didn't like the parts of the mean boy, Thug. I did really like the characters Max and his crush. It interested me because it was about school life and I thought it was a good diary type of book.
Professor Lacey Aardvark 16.07.2022
I like when Max Crumbly has to escape from the burglars who were stealing the school computers.
Duchess Sunny Aardvark 14.01.2022

It was good because when max was stuck in a locker, I felt like I was stuck in a locker too.
