AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Max Crack is new in Piddown.

'He decides that a new town means a new beginning and resolves to embark on a series of quests, such as:

  • Make a new best friend
  • Win a trophy.
  • Solve a mystery.
  • Find hidden treasure.

'He meets Frankie on his first day in town (Quest No. 1: tick). Now all he has to do is win a trophy, solve a mystery and find hidden treasure... The story is presented as Max's diary, and it's a visual feast: full of speech bubbles, doodles, asides, highlighted words, and crossed-out words. It's a stream of visual and verbal consciousness and captures the intriguingly chaotic mind of an 11-year-old perfectly.' (Publication summary)
