Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak
Max, a wild and naughty boy, is sent to bed without his supper by his exhausted mother. In his room, he imagines sailing far away to a land of Wild Things. Instead of eating him, the Wild Things make Max their king. (Goodreads)
“The night Max wore his wolf suit…” was one of the most eventful nights ever. I love naughty Max and his Wild Things. The fact that the entire journey takes place in his bedroom while he’s being punished is kid lit perfection. Here’s a guilty secret: I own a set of the Wild Things stuffed animals. Plus, I have a larger version of Bernard, my favorite creature, who has a bovine head, human feet, and luxuriant blue fur. I might even have a T-shirt, too.Okay, I’ll admit it: I’m unnaturally obsessed with this book.Redacted Reader, Library staff
