in The Forty Years Since Max First Cried "let The Wild Rumpus Start," Maurice Sendak's Classic Picture Book Has Become One Of The Most Highly Acclaimed And Best-loved Children's Books Of All Time. now, In Celebration Of This Special Anniversary, Introduce A New Generation To Max's Imaginative Journey To where The Wild Things Are.

The wild things--with their mismatched parts and giant eyes--manage somehow to be scary-looking without ever really being scary; at times they're downright hilarious. Sendak's defiantly run-on sentences--one of his trademarks--lend the perfect touch of stream of consciousness to the tale, which floats between the land of dreams and a child's imagination.

This Sendak classic is more fun than you've ever had in a wolf suit, and it manages to reaffirm the notion that there's no place like home.
