Marvelous Maxwell Visits the Vet is a detailed account of one puppy’s curiosity getting him into trouble. Maxwell is an inquisitive puppy whose interest in things, translates into eating them. We follow him through a trying couple of days that include getting breaking the rules, getting a tummy ache, and visiting the vet. Although Maxwell can be a mischievous little guy, he’s also a very kind and considerate member of the family.

Author Kimberly Volz describes in great detail everything that happens to Max before, during, and after his visit to the vet. Illustrators Amanda Minervini and Erich Bumm provide illustrations that pair perfectly with the story. Children will learn along with Maxwell that, with the love of your family, you can handle anything life may throw at you. Marvelous Maxwell Visits the Vet is a wonderful guide of what can happen if a puppy eats all he sees. Hopefully this book will serve as a warning to pet owners, and some puppy tummy aches will be avoided.
