So when CJ finally convinces Jillian to let her have Max, it’s a big surprise. But taking care of this pup is hard work. Max likes being bossy—and he believes he’s the most important dog around.

Can CJ ever help Max become a gentle, calm dog? Or will Jillian be convinced to take Max back to the animal shelter? Read this book to find out!

Max's Story: A Dog's Purpose Tale
By W. Bruce Cameron
Meet Max―a very special dog with a very important purpose. Here is another irresistible tale in the bestselling series for middle grade readers adapted from the New York Times and USA Today bestselling novel A Dog's Purpose and A Dog's Journey by W. Bruce Cameron.
As soon as he sets eyes on CJ, Max knows that she’s his girl and quickly figures out his purpose: to show her how to navigate the big city. Being a native New Yorker, Max knows how to take charge, even though he’s the smallest dog at the park. At the same time, with CJ’s help, Max learns that he doesn’t always have to be ferocious―sometimes, he can be “gentle Max” and make friends.
Young fans of Ellie’s Story, Bailey’s Story, and Molly’s Story will love Max’s Story, the story of a little dog in the big city. Includes adorable illustrations by Richard Cowdrey and a reading and discussion guide at the end of the book.

I like how Max just acts like he is the boss, and I also like his funny actions!
Max's story is about a dog named Max who gets adopted by a girl named CJ. He would do anything to protect her, and never leaves her side. He likes to act like he is the boss and other dogs shouldnt mess with him.
I really loved this book and I would recommend this book to my friends because it is very adventurous and very exciting. It also makes you want to get and have a puppy of your own.
