Mom Made Us Write This In The Summer Max and Maggie Journal Ali Maier Joanna Robinson 9780989375504 Books Reviews

How do kids want to spend their summer vacation? Not doing homework, that's for sure. This story was told through journal entries between a brother and sister, Max and Maggie. They were forced to write during the summer by their mother to make them get along. This book was absolutely cute and entertaining, and I found myself having a lot of fun with it.

What I loved best about this book was the creativity of the journals. Max and Maggie each had their own writing style. It made it easier to recognize whose journal entry was being read. All the journals had doodles that made it visually pleasing and fun to look at, which showed the different personalities of each child. It was very interesting to read how Max and Maggie had different perspectives to the same situations. It was hilarious and amusing to read their point of views. The creativity added to the entertainment of the book.

Max and Maggie were realistic. They each had fears and quirks as well as strengths. Though they were twins, their personalities were not the same. Max was the sporty boy who loved to shoot things and enjoyed anything that was gross. Maggie was the fashionable one who loved to go clothes shopping and loved cute animals, but hated babies. It was fun to read the kinds of topics that each sibling picked and it was enjoyable to read the comments that they made to each other. Max and Maggie sounded like two realistic siblings who bickered yet loved each other.

As a whole, this was an adorable children's book. I loved the idea that Max and Maggie had to write journals to each other so they could get along. They were creative and humorous. Though Max and Maggie somewhat understood the reasoning behind the journals towards the end, I was expecting a touching moment. It was still an entertaining book.
Have you ever seen pictures on Pinterest or Facebook with two kids held together by a large t-shirt and on the front it is written “This is our get along shirt.” Well, I have no idea if that works or not. What this Mom did seems a little more creative and effective. When ten year old twins, Max and Maggie, completed fourth grade and were settled in for the summer, they began to squabble. So, Mom bought a journal. Maggie actually likes stuff like that so she thought Mom bought the journal for her. But, oh no, it was for Max and Maggie to share during the summer. Mom wrote the first two pages of the journal. Some of the rules included that they take turns choosing a topic. Whoever chooses the topic writes first. They both must write about the same topic. They can make comments on each other’s writing, but they must be polite. Then she made a page of topic ideas.

Its fun to see how the twins worked together to bring their journal to life. It was an added pleasure to see the comments they made on each other’s writing – and yes, they were (fairly) polite! Sometimes they would choose a topic that they knew the other wasn’t fond of but they cooperated which was part of the goal. They included good-humored little drawings to make their topic more vibrant. One of Maggie’s topics was their visit to the Zoo; Max wasn’t thrilled about the Zoo, but he did find some humor in it, and so will the reader. The book is ‘Juvenile Fiction / Family’ and is recommended for 2nd – 6th grade students. The book is language appropriate for children. If your child is not a strong reader, I think it would be fun for him or her to read it with an adult. I really enjoyed this book and rated it 4.5 out of 5.
My 10 year old daughter loved this book! She read it in a day and a half. I caught her laughing out loud many times. Our entire dinner conversation revolved around what Maggie and Max had written in their journal and said about each other. I would highly recommend this book.
Hard to believe this was written by anyone other than Max & Maggie themselves. So true to the sibling put down and love up. The illustrations and side bars are not to be missed. Can't wait for Ali's next book. Loved the lion at the zoo story. Future wishes for you success Ali.
My son and I enjoyed reading this book together. I would recommend it!
I bought this book as a gift for a 2nd grader. I read it myself and laughed through out the book. This book will keep the attention of any child, and is a fun read for a parent. Loved the funny illustrations. Can't wait to read Ali's next book.
