I enjoyed this book as a child, but I’m realizing now that I appreciate it even more as an adult. It’s a reminder to stay young at heart and let your imagination take you to other worlds. I can’t wait to see what Jonze does with it. I’ve heard good things so far, but usually I prefer the book over the movie. Perhaps he’ll prove me wrong?
Looking forward to hearing other thoughts!

I really like this book because it is the kind of book that is really good for any age.It doesn’t matter if your 5 or 55 it is an entertaining book.This book is good for a birthday present or even a Halloween or maybe a Christmas present because, Where The Wild Thins Are wasn’t really made for a special a cation.I also like Max because he has a WILD imagination that leads him into this wonderful and amazing dream.
P.S. For the people who just happen to
be reading this and did not read Where
The Wild Things Are then I personally
recomend this book.
love,
