Ten-year-old Max McConk has to figure out how to make new friends for the first time in his life and he has no idea how it all works. To make matters worse, he only has one month to do it before the new school year starts. YIKES!

In Fitting Out: The Friendship Experiment, ten-year-old Max sets out to make new friends, using the scientific method to conduct his own friendship experiment. While testing out his hypotheses for finding new friends, Max discovers what works (and what TOTALLY doesn't!). With his scientific plan, a little bravery, and perseverance, Max finds out where he fits, just in time for the first day of school.
