Meet Maximus Masters

Maximus Masters is a laugh-out-loud chapter book series designed specifically for kids who crave exciting stories without drowning in walls of text. 

These high-low children's books feature high-interest narratives paired with accessible language, shorter chapters, and plenty of visual support. This means that kids can enjoy all the fun, chaos, and adventure of a ‘big’ book — without feeling overwhelmed. 

Each story follows Maximus Masters, a whizz-kid inventor whose brilliant ideas tend to go spectacularly wrong. Readers can expect silly inventions, fast-paced action, and a dose of humor that keeps them eagerly turning the pages.
