by John Heffner (Author)
Every story begins with a simple question.
What if?What if four exceptionally bright young men from a tiny village in China discovered a way to change the fashion world?What if every time they succeeded, their own ambition tempted them to take one step too far?And what if, no matter how spectacularly they failed, they always found another impossible dream waiting just around the corner?Those questions became the beginning of Maxi, Laxi, Paxi, and Raxi.The Maxi Boys were never meant to be ordinary heroes. They are inventive, hardworking, optimistic, and endlessly resourceful. They can solve problems that no one else would even think of tackling. Yet they possess one very human weakness. Success never seems quite successful enough. Every triumph invites a larger ambition, and every larger ambition plants the seed of the next disaster.These stories grew out of a love of imagination. They are not meant to be realistic, nor are they intended to teach lessons by preaching. Instead, each adventure allows the consequences of choices to unfold naturally. Along the way, readers may discover that honesty usually outlasts cleverness, patience often beats greed, and genuine success is seldom found by taking shortcuts.Most of all, I hope these stories remind readers that imagination is one of life's greatest gifts. It allows us to dream, invent, laugh, and wonder. Used wisely, it can change the world. Used carelessly, it can sometimes create wonderfully entertaining disasters.So come along as Maxi, Laxi, Paxi, and Raxi travel from their village in China to New York, Paris, the Caribbean, and South Africa in pursuit of one remarkable idea after another.Just don't be too surprised if every brilliant plan turns into an unforgettable adventure.
