The Max Poems for Children

The author has written nine charming poems for children centering on the adventures of a boy and a talking dog. They start with the boy dreaming about an adventure with a dog. On waking he finds that a dog like the one he was dreaming of has found its way to his home. Together they travel to dreamland, to a nearby forest, and even to Mars.

Some poems are just flights of imagination with fun being the major point. Other poems try to teach a lesson, such as, one should not make judgments about others based on people’s prejudices and that when one loves another his heart can be broken.
