Max Entropy & The Avalanche
Megan Preston Meyer
Max Entropy & the Avalanche is a cautionary—but joyful—tale of statistics, chaos, and real-world risk. Perfect for curious kids, contrarians, parents who are bored of basic bedtime stories, and anyone who’s ever wondered what happens when the world doesn’t follow the model, this rhyming little book belongs on every bookshelf.
Meet Max Entropy, a boy who knows that the world is full of surprises—and that reality doesn’t always match our predictions. When his friend Predict Shaun insists a snow day is coming (because his model says so), Max looks out the window and sees something very different: Sunshine… and danger on the peaks. As an avalanche threatens their town, Max’s resilience and quick thinking save the day, showing that real-world risk is about more than just statistics and forecasts.
