Hi Alex,
I am 5 years old too. My adopted Grandpa who lives just up the hill from me in Colfax, California, is from Australia. He has lived here with Grandma for six years now since they were married.
One day I am going back to Australia with him for a visit. Where is Wivenhoe Dam? My Grandpa knows a lot of Australia but he doesn't know where this is.
We like your stories about Max. Some times my mommy says I even sound like Grandpa because I love him and spend a lot of time at his house.
G'Day,
Holden Klar

hello Max!!!
I have another idea for your story, it's called Max and the Wish Waterfall.
I have another idea for your story. It's called Max in Outer Space.
Max and the Wish Waterfall.
Max wishes for something and it doesn't come true. Platty tells him about the wish waterfall and he gets the wish. He wishes again at the wish waterfall and gets the wish. Max wishes for a Koala circus.
Max in Outer Space
Max goes to space in a rocket. He meets a friendly alien. The alien comes down to earth to meet all Max's friends. He was invited to Max's house for dinner. They had gumnut soup. The alien got a tummy ache. He went back to space.
Love,

Hope you have fun.

Dear Alex,
I really liked your Koala Trouble! I'm a big fan now! My favourite story was "Max visits Sydney". What about a story where Max goes to the football? Max could barrack for the Brisbane Lions!
Once again, Ireally liked Koala Trouble. I'm sure I'll visit again soon!
Bye,

Date: Mon, 10 Mar 1997 20:36:06 -0600Hi Alex.
This is Dennis's sister, Amy. I have a new idea for Max's adventure. I think Max should go to school or the aquarium. Platy could go along.
I hope these ideas will help you in making a new adventure for Max.

My four year old and I really like the stories. She says she likes the pictures very much! She really likes the platypus. She also loves to hear stories from Australia, ant the animals from there. The point and click interface is very easy for her to use.
Thank you for sharing Max and his adventures with us, we hope to see many more in the future!

Dear Alex.
I've seen your internet page, and I must say, I'm impressed. Keep up the good work, and by the age of 20 everybody in the world will know your name! Tip: isn't there a possibillity to be registered in the Guiness Book of Records, for the "youngest internet homepage creator" (or something)?

Dear Alex,
I think you write very well and your Mum and Dad must be very proud of you. I am going to show my college class some of your web site in my project on literacy in early childhood education, (helping to teach young children to read and write).
I live in Ottawa, Canada and have 2 children of my own, Megan 12 years old and Kelsey 10 years old.
My family would very much like to visit Austrailia in the future but now we are happy learning about your country from excellent web sites such as yours. I am a teaching assistant and my husband is a police officer.
Thank you for sharing your super stories.
Sincerely, Sandi Davidson
