The Truth about Max - Alice Provensen

\nA never-before-published original work from renowned children's book duo Alice and Martin Provensen, which invites into the mystery that is Max the cat! \n\n \nIn this picture book from \nthe Provensens' archives, the unforgettable Max, who appears in many of the Provensens' picture books, takes center stage. \nWherever Max goes, mischief is sure to follow! He spends his days teasing, playing hide-and-seek, and prowling the barnyard. He's also keenly intelligent and independent, with his own private life that \nbegins at night. An affectionate portrait of a pet who's both friend and hunter, \nfrom a luminary author-illustrator pair of American children's literature.\n \nTaking inspiration from their own life at Maple \nHill Farm in Dutchess County, New York, great American illustrators Alice and \nMartin Provensen shared the changing seasons that give rhythm to life in the \ncountry in A Year at Maple Hill Farm and the lovable antics of their \nbarnyard animals in Our Animal Friends at Maple Hill Farm. This picture \nbook will include backmatter from Karen Provensen, with more information of Max, the real-life cat \nwho lived on Maple Hill Farm, and her parents' lasting legacy.\n
