"It was the kind of bump that makes your face go one way and your eyes the other. The kind that makes your tongue hang out and flap in the breeze for a while."

Maxx is having another rough day on the footy field, but can he recover and teach his opponent a lesson, and maybe even win the game at the same time?

To celebrate 20 years of this iconic Australian series, get ready for a wild ride with Maxx Rumble and the Stone Valley Saints through what must be the most exciting and madcap season of under-aged Aussie Rules Football in history. But be warned, things get crazy out there and, sometimes Maxx's bravest efforts result in even more mayhem and hilarity.

Written by two legends of Australian children's books, this series has been building confidence in 7-10 year old readers for 20 years. Even the most reluctant readers love them. So join Maxx and his friends for a season of unforgettable event in this refreshed and improved 20th anniversary edition.

Shortlisted for multiple Australian children's-choice awards, loved by kids, parents and librarians alike, Maxx is back and better than ever.

And remember, be like Maxx, never give up, no matter how disastrous things get!
