Publisher's summary

Are you looking for a fun way to help you teach your child new words? Then you are in the right place! Perfect for preschoolers, kindergarteners, and kids in grades one and two! Bonus: They learn some first-aid, too!

Arielle and her friends are watching a movie. What could go wrong? OMG! A piece of popcorn gets stuck in Arielle’s throat! Can Maxx, a 7-year-old with some medical smarts, save her?

With all the fun of an amazing adventure, Marvelous Maxx and the Stuck-Up Popcorn is sure to capture the hearts and minds of children and adults alike. You won't just enjoy the story; you will feel a part of it and learn a lot!

Created by a Harvard-trained teacher to educate and inspire, children will love learning awesome new words and powerful first-aid, through the adventures of a group of children - Maxx, Arielle, Ethan, and Lucas - in a colorful journey.

Each new word is defined in simple language your child can understand, and listed at the end (e.g., It’s damp and drizzly. Yuk! "Damp" is a cool way to say a little wet. "Drizzly" means raining lightly). For all those asking: Are there any other Fancy Nancy-type books to teach new words and facts? The resounding answer is yes! Marvelous Maxx has stepped up to entertain and educate both boys and girls.

Our experts chose the perfect words so that your child will be a better reader at any age. Within each new adventure, children will learn epic words like “delectable", "rumble", and "frantically”, which will ignite their imagination. We have used progressive, practical, current, culturally diverse, and advanced words that will make your children smarter and more confident.

The authors were honorable mention winners for "Picture Books 6 and Older" in the 2021 Royal Dragonfly Book Awards.

PRACTICAL NEW WORDS & LIFE-SAVING SKILLS :)

Listened to this with my son and followed along in the book - truly amazing. My son not only learned some great news words like 'gourmet' and 'gigantic' but also a life saving action to try if someone is choking on something - which is what my son even tried out on his teddy bear. A wonderful way for children to learn.
