This is a review of the book 'Maxx Rumble Crunched!' The book was written by Michael Wagner and illustrated by Terry Denton. It was published in 2004 by Black Dog books.

This book is about a boy called Max who is playing football, and in the last few minutes of the game, his opposition puts Sumo wrestlers on him. Max is about to put his team into the lead and kick the winning goal, when Sumo wrestlers squash him between them. What will happen to Max now? Read the story to find out!

This is a great book for children who love football, mainly 8-10 year old boys.It is easy and quick to read, and if you enjoy it, there is a whole series to get stuck into, all adventures with Maxx and his footy team.The pictures by Terry Denton are very funny and add to the story.Each book in the series can actually teach you something too. This book teaches you about footy ladders and what all the numbers mean.
