Max Mullers lives in East London with his family: Mum, Dad, two brothers, a sister and Lucky, the family dog. Max loves magic, and when he grows up he wants to be a magician - just like his grandparents were back in the day. For now, he practices magic at every opportunity - sometimes successfully, and sometimes with disastrous results!
This book is the first in a potential series of books with Max Magic, and here we get to know Max, his family and his close group of friends as they all go about their daily lives in the East End of London.
There are also some typical villains in the story - a bully at Max's school (George Bottley); and The Crayfish Twins, who breathe terror through the East End market where Max's dad has a toy stall.
The story is a pretty formulaic children's story, but it is an enjoyable read and will no doubt be enjoyed by many children.
