5 out of 5 stars Look into the mind of a child   October 5, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I just read this the other day to my first grade class, and it turns out I had forgotten just how gorgeous this book is!

It's the story of a boy named Max who imagines himself to another world: an island dominated by monsters, aka "wild things". No, it's not freakishly complex, but it is a kids' story.

It tells of one of the most important things we have: the power of imagination.



5 out of 5 stars A Timeless Classic   September 28, 2008

Monsters, monsters....children this age are obsessed with them. Every night this is the top book requested to be read by my children. Another delightful story about a caterpillar named Cyrano is also a big request... Life's Little Lessons: An Inch-By-Inch Tale of Success. The misadventures of a caterpillar going to school make the kids laugh and giggle.The bonus parent reading guide is an incredible plus. All children's literature should come with one.


5 out of 5 stars They love it, you'll love it.   September 10, 2008
Your 5 yr old will stay on your lap for the whole book and ask again tomorrow.


5 out of 5 stars Where The Wild Things Are - For Two Generations   September 1, 2008
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



5 out of 5 stars Two boys' review: Terrible...roars, teeth, eyes, claws! Super fun for little boys!   August 25, 2008
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.
