Monster Max and the Marmalade Ghost bookcover

Monster Max and the Marmalade Ghost

Robin Bennett

Max is an ordinary boy, except that he can turn into a monster when he burps… Max and Peregrine are volunteering at an old people’s home when strange things start to happen. One resident is walking on the ceiling, another is riding their wheelchair through walls, and Reggie says his marmalade is haunted (no one listens). Can Max and his friends work out what’s happening and protect his family and the local community? Things aren’t looking good: the Marmalade Ghost is turning into a sticky Godzilla, Max falls out with his (joint) best friend, and then just when it can’t get any worse, someone kidnaps his cat, Frankenstein… Time to ‘Protect and Do Good Stuff!’

I like finding about monsters like monster max

I like how max burps and turns into a monster

It was excellent. I liked the part where the evil white decided to help Monster Max and Peregrine defeat the ghost. I would recommend the book.

I wasn’t very keen on this book and I found monsters scary.

It was a very good book because the Marmalade Ghost scared off Peregrin's pants. I found that bit very funny! I would recommend this book because I think they will laugh too.
