Say hello to Max, a Little Axolotl! He’s back for another silly and sweet story. Max has been attending school for a few months now and has really settled in at the aquarium. He absolutely loves his new friends and teachers!

When a new axolotl arrives at the tank, Max jumps at the chance to show her around. The new axolotl is shy and is having trouble adjusting to this new life away from home. When Max discovers she’s gone missing one morning, it’s up to him and his friends to journey through the aquarium and find her.
