Little Max Comics #49

In "Sweet Treat," Max earns five cents shining shoes and decides to treat his friends to candy at the store. After they each pick their favorites, he’s left with nothing for himself—until the kind-hearted clerk steps in with a generous gesture.

In "Just for Laughs," Joe takes Max and Alice to the carnival, where they brave the fun house—only to find it far more unsettling than expected. Max, caught between giggles and nerves, can't help but wonder when the real fun will start, even as the twists and turns leave him on edge. But once they step out, he's already eager to go back in.

In "The Brush Off," Max finds his quiet moment sweeping interrupted when the baby brother of the North Wind arrives to stir up trouble. With a playful gust, the little wind stirs up the dust Max just collected—only for Max to outwit him by luring the breeze into blowing it all out the door.
