Max Finder is a 12 year old kid with a brain for useless facts and
a nose for mysteries.
Open-ended and filled with hidden clues,
each mystery challenges kids to help Max and his best friend, Alison, crack the case and catch the bad guys.
Max Finder Mysteries appears in
Owl Magazine,
Canada's top monthly magazine for readers aged 9 - 14 years.
In 2001, I created this series of "you-solve-it" mysteries as a three-episode
replacement to Owl's long-running series
The Mighty Mites.
But Max Finder proved a favourite with Owl readers and they demanded
that he stick around.
Three episodes has turned into three seasons and Max Finder is more popular than ever.
Recently, Max Finder Mysteries was voted "Best Regular Feature" by Owl readers across Canada.
After 4 years and 35 mysteries, Max and Alison are leaping from the pages of OWL and onto bookshelves across
North America with their new graphic novel,
Max Finder Mystery Collected Casebook #1,
available in September 2006.
