Notes From Your Bookseller

One of the most popular picture books, Where the Wild Things Are brings to life the wild imagination of a young boy Max, who finds himself on an island inhabited by monsters, or “wild things.” The beautiful illustrations of Sendak will have you wishing to set sail to where the wild things are.

Max is the hero of this beloved children's classic in which he makes mischief, sails away, tames the wild things and returns home for supper.

Editorial Reviews

Barnes & Noble Staff

Max is being so terrible that his mother sends him to his room without supper. But Max doesn't care -- he sails off to the land of the Wild Things, and they make him his king. There, Max can be as terrible as he pleases, and the Wild Things join in the rumpus. Finally, Max is tired of being wild, and yearns to go home. Marvelous pictures and the superb story combine to make this a quintessential picture book. In it, readers will recognize their own wild side.
