Marele ratoi Max

A newly hatched duck named Max sets off to explore the world. His pranks and mishaps shape this collection of short tales by Aureliu Busuioc. As Max discovers the world, he tries to change it. He comes to see himself as brave, great, and in charge of all he surveys.

The tales are for children, with parents and educators also in mind. Max talks with a hen friend and a pot he sees as an enemy. He also meets a hawk, whom he fears most. This Romanian paperback has 24 pages and dates from 2006. It brings Max back almost forty years after his earlier appearance.
