Summary

Do you like epic quests of amazing counting?

Do you dislike global pandemics, being stuck at home and the number seven?

Then I have a story for you. It’s about how I counted to a million during lockdown—with help from Mum and Dad, friends and neighbours and Grandad. And some birds. And a bucket of marbles. And an awesome TV reporter.

Sometimes, just keeping on going makes you a hero.

Eight-year-old Max is counting to a million. Normally, school or having anything interesting to do would get in the way, but school is shut and everyone has to stay home because the UK is in its first lockdown. Max’s dad works at the hospital and counting helps Max with missing him, but as the pandemic progresses and Max’s grandad journeys through his own battle with the virus, what starts as a distraction turns into record-breaking effort that brings Max’s community together.

Suitable for listeners aged seven and up, this funny, poignant, uplifting story reflects the experiences shared by so many during the COVID pandemic and celebrates how ordinary people accomplish epic things.

This book is awesome

I really enjoyed this story. The way it's read as well is great. The humour, Max's imagination, the characters. I have read this book on paper 4 times and listened to the audiobook 21 times! I love this book and I highly recommend it.
