As part of our 100 Best Children's Books of All Time, we are starting with Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are. Max, a precocious, rule-breaking box takes on the character of a wild wolf after he dresses up in a furry, white fox suit. His mother calls him a "wild thing," leading him get even more out of hand by talking back to him. Getting sent to his room without supper could have been reason enough for him to feel remorseful, but it took a lot more than that - an adventure through rough seas and a group of wild things that teach him that a place without rules can be ideal for a boy who does not mind living without the warmth of his mother. Will he love being a wild thing forever, or will he decide to return home to rules and consequences and his mother's love? Read and find out!
