  On the Way to Being a Classic
Review created: 09/26/06
4 of 8 people found this review helpful.

This is one of my favorite books. Max is bad and has to go to bed without his supper. So, he goes to where he's king--where the wild things are! The illustrations make this book extra special. You'll fall in love with Max and the wild things. The fantasy and the the lesson learned combine to make this a memorable book. It is an older book which is increasing becoming a classic! The softcover edition is great to pack in a bag and read anytime. The pictures alone keep kids interested.

  Great children's book
Review created: 11/09/09

This was my son's favorite book when he was little. We read it every night for a couple of years. He is 16 now and asked where the book was, and I had given it away when he lost interest. He wanted it back, so I ordered it for him, and although he is a tough guy now, 6' tall and bullet proof, he still loves his favorite book!!

  Where the Wild Things Are
Review created: 11/07/09
by:

Reading this book is fun and exciting. The pictures are colorful and have wonderful detail that allows you to make up your own tale as you go along. There's no dialog or narration on the pages where Max and his friends are playing, so its a great opportunity for exploration and creative freedom to either alter the story or allow the child to do so. Fantastic book...

Review created: 11/06/09

I was 9 years old when this book first came out, so I missed it, because I was too old. I bought it recently after I saw the trailers for the new movie. I'm 55 now and I was amazed at how simple but imaginizing (sic) and inspiring this story is. I read it to my girlfriend. She loved it. Now I need to find a grandkid!

When the book arrived I read it to my seven year-old first, and then he read it to me. It's still a great book after all these years - I'm soooo glad they didn't change anything.

  Where the Wild Things Are - Imagination & Inclusion
Review created: 11/01/09
by:

Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are is a wonderfully presented story for children. The tale focuses on an apparently rowdy youth, Max, who is sent to bed without supper for his rambunctious escapades in the house. Later that night Max dreams of a magical rowdy world where he is king of all things wild and terrible, but eventually Max comes to realize that having everything always go your way lacks any real fulfillment. The incorporation of some values into a beautifully illustrated adventure is sure to entertain any small child while still effectively presenting a subtle message. Thus, a child is not confused, nor presented with a meaningless tale. The pictures have been recognized worldwide and have been presented with the prestigious Caldicott Award for illustrations in children's books. This book is printed in hardcover, a bonus for when handling is to be done by children, and the font is large and separated from pictures to avoid confusion. The author's connection of the textual story to the pictoral story is helpful for children learning to read as well, as it helps to form associations between pictures and words. Widely recognized as a classic, Where the Wild Things Are is a necessity for any small child's library.
