Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak is one of my favorite children’s books. The Wild Things are soo cute. Max, the main character, dreams about going to this place. I dream about going to different places everyday.

I don’t remember reading this book as a kid. I read it a couple of years ago in a Children’s Literature class that I took in college and I loved the book ever since then. The Wild Things are soo cute!!! Max is soo cool!!!

Oh, I remember reading this book, too!

I remember the illustrations in this book clearly, even though it was about 40 years ago! wow. I remember the claws. :)) I just checked the net and it was the 1964 Caldecott Medal Winner for the Most Distinguished Picture Book Of the Year!
