Max Goes to the Moon is a science adventure story featuring a dog named Max and a young girl named Tori. Through their quest to travel to the Moon, Max and Tori inspire people back on Earth with a love of adventure and a new respect for our fragile home planet. The beautifully illustrated story is accompanied by "Big Kid Boxes" that explain the science behind the story, covering topics such as the phases of the Moon, why spaceships don't need wings, and how a Frisbee would fly on the Moon. The boxes can be read by older children or used by parents to answer questions from younger readers.
