My daughter wishes she had a little brother and she loves the way Ruby treats Max. She helps him and keeps from getting mad. He is a handful but she seems to be able to handle it all. Katie feels like a big girl pretending to be Ruby and she loves to repeat the story to me later. Very Sweet.

I look for this show, and Little Bear to calm and unwind my 3 year old. He may not be glued to the screen, but the sound tract is nice. It's a kind and gentle show. My son and I laugh at big sister's bossiness, and say 'oh-oh' when Max raises his eyebrow. Cute.

Falls short of the series of books that it is based on by Rosemary Wells. It is gentle- but has the annoying habits of re-inforcing gender stereo-types as well as the superiority of older siblings. We like the pace and subtle humor. The show is written to amuse both adults and children.

This show is ok but ruby always yells at max . I Think That Ruby shoud stop bossing max around And Why Don't They Have Any Parents? But this show is still ok for little kids

I HATE WHEN RUBY BOSSES MAX BUT WHO CARES MAX SOMETIMES GETS BACK AT RUBY.

My daughter and I have been watching Max and Ruby together since she was two (she entered first grade this year) and we still love it. Max is quite a little trouble maker and Ruby, his very patient older sister, is a good example for older siblings. My favorite part of the show is that, in most episodes, Ruby makes a rather narrow-mided assumption about how things should be done, but eventually realizes that there are other ways to get things done through her little brother's mischievous interference. I think there are lessons in this show for people of all ages, and the toe-tapping jazz soundtrack makes it loads of fun!

I don't like the way Ruby is always bossing around Max and not letting him do what he wants. And Max's constant one-word requests resulted in my brother saying "cheese. cheese. cheese." for hours.

Fortunately *and* unfortunately, Max and Ruby is my two-year-old's favorite. While we did have some initial issues with emulating Max's behavior, he's also picked up some behavior such gently hushing "quiet" to friends who are being excessively noisy. Although the show does have some bizarre concepts (I don't have a problem so much with Ruby being Max's apparant primary caretaker as her being an overly giggly "girly" girl who prefers beauty products and being a "bunny Scout."), the stories are short and fun. For all the problems I *do* have with the Max and Ruby series, I've found an equal amount of good things too.

I do not recommend Max and Ruby at all. I think that Ruby is bossy and I wonder why she is the caregiver to her younger brother? Where are the parents? My main issue though is with the speach (or lack of) of Max. His one-word requests do not model proper sentance speaking for young toddlers. I used to let my son watch the show, but then he started to use one word requests like Max, and off went the show, and back came his words!

She is constantly bossing Max around, telling him he can't do things until he persists to a point where she HAS to agree with what he's going. Frankly, I always feel a little sorry for Max.
