What is the climax of the book Maniac Magee?
The climax of Maniac Magee is near the end. The climax of most books is near the end. It is when Mars Bar and Maniac hear Russell and Piper yelling at the tracks where Maniacs parents are killed. Then Maniac leaves and doesn’t help the boys and Mars Bar has to help the boys on his own even though he is black and they are white. From there the book descends to a resolution!
