This book makes kids feel powerful, acknowledges their wild side, reassures them there's still love waiting for them at home. Brilliant!
The book and all plush toys - Max, Moishe, Sipi and Bernard (are those really the monsters' names?) can all be bought at www.signal.com

The book that started it all.....Where the Wild Things Are is one of those truly rare books that can be enjoyed equally by a child and a grown-up.

I loved this book and its wild illustrations. The story of King Max and how his bedroom transformed into a jungle. I'm recalling this from memory, so you'll have to forgive me if I get any of the facts wrong. This book will always hold a special place in my heart, even though I don't recall owning a copy of it. I'm pretty sure it was introduced to me at school or day care. At any rate, it is far from forgotten, and would be a wonderful introduction to Maurice Sendak for any child.

Such fond memories. I'm a bit of a purist so I'm kind of afraid of the movie adaptaion.
