I work in a center for autism and I am also familiar with the show due to my son and I would have to say given what I know about autism that Max has to be on the spectrum. Autism is not a clear cut disorder. It varies from person to person. I have read on other sites that people think he isn't because on a few episodes he "plays" with other characters, but once again because Autism is a spectrum disorder, it is possible that he would interact with others. Every person with autism is different.
Since I can't seem to have my own answer frame:
Max is a fictional character aimed at a very young age group therefore his world and behavior is quite simple. The small amount of expressive language in the books and TV shows encourages the reader/watcher to interact with the child listening/watching which expands the literacy value of Rosemary Wells' books. To see autism in the Max character is looking for something that is not there nor intended to be.
Max is a white bunny; Ruby is an older sister who thinks she knows what is best for Max and tries to control him. Although Max is easygoing, he remains undaunted, innocently outsmarting his sister and always getting the last word. Featuring a minimal but lively text, the books feature pictures enlivened by vivid primary colors and featuring an uncluttered page layout. Writing in Booklist, Judith Goldberger praised the series for "driv[ing] ... a real wedge into the existing block of un notable, overcute, didactic baby-toddler tomes."
