About the Book



Max is a very special dog with a very important purpose in this new irresistible tale in the bestselling series for middle-grade readers adapted from the "New York Times"- and "USA Today"-bestselling novel "A Dog's Purpose." Illustrations.



Book Synopsis



Now in paperback! Meet Max--a very special dog with a very important purpose -- featured in A Dog's Journey, now a major motion picture! Young readers will love this story in the popular A Dog's Purpose Puppy Tales series by bestselling author W. Bruce Cameron.

As soon as he sets eyes on CJ, Max knows that she's his girl and quickly figures out his purpose: to show her how to navigate the big city. Being a native New Yorker, Max knows how to take charge, even though he's the smallest dog at the park. At the same time, with CJ's help, Max learns that he doesn't always have to be ferocious--sometimes, he can be "gentle Max" and make friends.

Young fans of Ellie's Story, Bailey's Story, and Molly's Story will love Max's Story, the story of a little dog in the big city. Includes adorable illustrations by Richard Cowdrey and a reading and discussion guide at the end of the book.
