Where The Wild Things Are



Sendak, M. (1963).  Where the wild things are.  NY: HarperCollins.
Summary: Max gets into trouble and his mother sends him to bed without dinner. He falls asleep and immediately his room transforms into a forest surrounded by an ocean. Max finds himself in a place where the wild things are and after showing no fear, he is named king of the wild things. After days, Max gets tired and starts missing his mom. So he puts the creatures to sleep just like his mom did to him. Something very special is waiting for him when he wakes up.

Review: This is a great book for parents to read to their children as a bedtime story. It’s truly magical and the illustrations prove that. The message shows that no matter what happens, a mother will always be there for their children.
