Gr 4-6-Set in the Middle Ages, this hilarious illustrated novel centers on Max, who is often mistaken for a boy because of her short hair and assertive personality. Max wants to be a knight, not an entertainer like her uncle. She finally gets her chance when her uncle is kidnapped by the evil and aptly named King Gastley. She and several and other courageous children dub themselves the Midknights and come to the rescue. Aided by the retired wizard Mumblin, Max and her team try to restore peace to the Kingdom of Byjovia. This is a story of magic and adventure. Comic panels with Peirce's signature black-and-white art are expertly placed amid small paragraphs of text. Readers will be drawn into this fun setting. While this novel stands alone from the "Big Nate" books, the opening page references the series, as Nate's teacher chastises him for submitting "Max and the Midknights" as his nonfiction book report.

Joined by a band of brave adventurers--the Midknights--Max sets out on a thrilling quest: to save Uncle Budrick and restore the realm of Byjovia to its former high spirits!
Magic and (mis)adventures abound in this hilarious illustrated novel from the New York Times bestselling creator of the Big Nate series, Lincoln Peirce.

Grandson LOVED Max and Midnights Fabulous drawings superb story. My grandson loved this book and has read it twice already! I can’t wait for my granddaughter to read it.Nice story, funny, great illustrations Seeing that the book was by the author of Nate, I jumped at the occasion and was not disappointed.The humor, the usual nice drawings are all there and the story is good as well (with plenty of twists).As fans of Nate, both my daughter and I kept on thinking that we saw similarities between the characters in Nate and the ones in Max given that the drawing style is almost (if not) identical.Great adventure and heroine for early readers My six-year-old son loved this book. I like the the main character is a brave and adventurous female that a reader of either gender can happily support and root for. As a first grader, my son is still a relatively early reader. I liked the "hybrid" style of this book. It has text, but also has many illustrations, so the result is a bit book, a bit graphic novel (a la the style of Dog Man). That makes it easier for my son to read, and less intimidating that full pages of pure text.The story has kept him well entertained and engaged, and as an adult reading over his shoulder, I've enjoyed it as well.
