Aimed at probably the over 8s market - I'm obviously too old for the tales of Max Magic - but I enjoyed it none the less.

I think most children will enjoy reading about Max and his adventures with magic and his group of friends. There's some nice messages in here, and it highlights the importance of family, friends and having good morals etc.

I would note that guns and knives do get a very brief mention, and that's what's keeping a star off for me. I think it could have been written without mentioning either and then I'd feel happier giving it to my 9 year old daughter to read. Perhaps, I'm too sensitive and others won't be bothered by this - but it's worth knowing that they do get a mention.

There's some nice illustrations in this book; make sure you flip through the pages to see the moving magic hat in the corner 😁

I'm sure there will be more Max Magic adventures to come, hopefully without any mention of guns or knives.
