Where The Wild Things Are is an incredible imaginative story that is fun to read. The illustrations and cover are amazing. The story is about a boy named Max who escapes to a mysterious land full of strange creatures. This book is a classic and for good reason.... great read.

I loved reading this book to my children and purchased it for a new grandson so he could be WILD along with these characters. Great story!

I've given this wonderful book as a gift over one hundred times to co-workers and friends upon the birth of their first child -- male or female. My children love to have us read it to them and read it to each other.

I purchased this book as it was considered a classic. My kids (boy/girl/3/6) , however, have never been that interested in it. They LOVE stories, but this one we ended up giving away as it was collecting dust on the shelf.
Review by Gary Powell, 2010-07-04
Ho sad that this classic combination of words and illustrations has fallen flat on the silver screen. Like most adaptations, Maurice Sendak's remarkable literary achievement is best suited to the vivid world of our own imagination rather than the feeble Hollywooding of yet another great work.
"Where the Wild Things Are" is a romp through a wonderland, a run through a scary forest and a complete captivation of the mind and all it can conjure. Whether this book is read aloud (and that should always be the first introduction) or re-read by the young person (or later "young" person)the world of unknown is brought to life in these pages. We find monsters of all kinds of shapes and sizes and colors. Some of them are new and some seem to be from the hidden places in our own minds. All of them, we discover, may not be as terrible as first imagined.
Grab a copy of this book. It is far too good to be borrowed. Like all good books, it must be owned and treasured.
