Max Counts to a Million is a fun book for kids to read because it gives them a first hand account from someone they can relate to. The wording is simple but easy to follow, and I never got the impression that the author was patronizing or "dumbing-down" his writing because he thinks that's what kids need, which is something that happens all too frequently.

It's truly a book about the world during the Pandemic, which affected everyone regardless of their age, where they lived, or how much money they had or didn't have. This book is ideal for younger readers because it is not at all patronizing, has a highly relatable protagonist, and a simple plot.

I think this is an excellent read because it reminds us that we're all going through the same struggles and we're not as isolated as we may think during this pandemic. The younger may find this book especially helpful.
