Mighty Maximilian: Samuel Clemens's Traveling Companion

Experience historic events through the eyes of Maximilian P. Mouse, Time Traveler! Much to Maximilian's dismay, the time machine has missed again. He's landed on a paddleboat that is slowly making its way down the mighty Mississippi River. Luckily, Maximilian makes a new friend Bogart T. Bullfrog! Maximilian discovers it is 1883 and this is the last voyage of the Mississippi Belle. While Bogie is giving Maximilian a tour and teaching him about Cajun life, a mysterious man in white catches Maximilian's eye. Maximilian discovers the man is Samuel Clemens--a gifted writer who uses the pen name Mark Twain. Just before testing the time machine once more, Maximilian witnesses Clemens finalizing his book The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Grades 3-6.
