But whether hes a magician in search of a moneymaking trick, a hero looking for someone to rescue, or a movie director set to make the next box office hit, his getrichquick schemes often end in spectacular disaster!

In Max the Business Man, the highlyanticipated fourth installment of the MaxaMillionseries, Max is still trying to make his first million. Is he finally ready to hang up his getrichquick schemes and get a regular job? No way! Convinced it would be fruitless to work for someone else when all the profits go to the head honcho, Max decides to go business for himself. While helping his mother in the garden, a business plan starts to germinate. The Mayor is calling for a Main Street facelift, and with Sids help and his mothers marigolds, Max could corner the sidewalk flower box industry!

In a flash, Max goes from gardener to detective, as he tries to catch the culprit (and hopefully a big reward!).
