Wild things are not under the bed
His mother called him "
WILD
THING!" Max is sent to bed without eating anything. He sails off into a far away land
where
is becomes the King of the wild
things
.
As a child, I was afraid of what could be under the bed or in the closet. My mom used to read this book to me and told me that there
are
no monsters under the bed or in the closet and that I have to sail to far away land to see one. As a dad, I read this book in the same message.
Some criticize this book as being too scary for little one I think it's a good way of showing that there is nothing to fear. Besides these monsters are almost adorable compared to what kids see at a shopping center
The illustrations have become such a classic that almost every kids monster characters can be trace back to this. From the opening of the page kids will feel like there is something familiar about it and be drawn in.
The story ends with Max returning to find his supper waiting for him. A nice touch to show mothers love.

Classic
One of the best kids books in my opinion. I got this and some 'monster slippers' as a gift for friends kids. Everyone should own a copy and read them (if not to their kids than to themselves!).
Fantastic!
My 2 year old absolutely loves reading this book. Some of the illustrations
are
dark and could be seen as scary to some, but my kid adores this book, and always runs to this one to pull it off the shelf!
Good Book
My kids at preschool love this story and they listen to it almost everyday before taking a nap. I bought the DVD as well and they love it also.
