For the youngest of Max and Ruby fans, here is a soft and snuggly cloth book, all boxed up to make a great-looking gift package. Featured on the front cover is Max, bundled up in his snowsuit, plus two little fleece ties affixed to the cover which can be tied and untied as Max's scarf.
"Guess what, Max," said Max's sister Ruby. "We're going out in the snow..." And so begins the endless piling-on of bulky layers. Unfortunately for Ruby, Max has other ideas!
