as told to my mom,

Max, a wild, wiry Airedale Terrier rescue, has a lot of wisdom to share about life. Told in his own words (with translation from mom), this full-color gift book follows Max and his family on a joyous romp through 20 poignant, funny and inspiring life tales that shaped his Maxims for a Great Life. Not just a dog book to be appreciated by dog lovers alone, this life journey is to be shared by all ages. Max's story will:

• Inspire adults/kids with his attitude and Maxims
  
• Teach kids about pet responsibility
  
• Gently discuss life’s biggest issues with children — adoption (both human and animal), friendship, illness and end-of-life
  
• Show how rescue animals make the best pets
  
• Ease the pain of pet loss with a thoughtful memorial
