Editorial Reviews
The 1964 Caldecott Medal Winner for the Most Distinguished Picture Book of the Year by Maurice Sendak. Brian O'Doherty of The New York Times said the Mr. Sendak's work "disguised in fantasy, springs from his earliest self, from the vagrant child that lurks in the heart of all of us."

This was my son's favorite book when they were toddlers and I loved reading it to hem. I
just purchased again for my 5 month old grandson. This book helps children tap into their personal power within through the use of likeable imaginative monsters. Ce Ce

Sometimes we just can't seem to settle down before bed. During those times, I reach for "Where the Wild Things Are" so that my two sons can roar their terrible roars and gnash their terrible teeth and roll their terrible eyes and show their terrible claws.

The book is short -- perfect for bedtime reading -- and very interactive. The story follows Max and his wild imagination to a magical land. I use the book to reinforce in my sons that they need to settle down in the evening and not get into the type of mischief Max falls into.

This is a great addition to your bedtime reading collection.

One of my favorites

I loved this book as a child, so I bought it for my 4 year old. I had forgotten how great it is. It's truely a spectacular little adventure. Not too long to even read two or three times...you know how four year olds are...

This was my favorite as a child :)

This one is a classic, of course. Chances are that you remember it from your own childhood, what more is there to say?

My nieces love this one. It's not too wordy, so it's great for very little children and for those nights where you really want everybody in bed five minutes ago! But the words that are there are perfectly selected, nothing is missing. Lyrical is the word I'd use.

And the story about Max having his time-out and repenting (or, for that matter, his mother changing her mind about her over-reaction) is one that most children can relate to, I think.

Wild!
