Maxwell is always in trouble.
He's a total menace to his teachers and big sister, but has a soft side, too: he rescued his dog, Monster, from being run over and checks on his elderly neighbour after school.
One day, while looking through a mysterious cabinet of curiosities, Maxwell finds himself erased from his life: it's as if he's never been born.
At first, being able to walk around without being yelled at is great, but Maxwell starts to miss his old life.
