Description
Publisher's Description of Max Booth, Future Sleuth: Stamp Safari
A tiny piece of paper from the year 2019 might not sound very
interesting to most people. But Max and Oscar, who are Bluggsville's
sharpest sleuths, aren't most people! Max has a hunch that this ancient
patch of paper might be valuable and extremely rare. Max is right. This
isn't just any old piece of paper. It's a strange, sticky thing called a
postage stamp, and it's more than 400 years old! It's an exciting
discovery, but before long, it leads Max and Oscar into some very sticky
situations...
