Sinossi
Questo piccolo libro ha una lunga e curiosa storia. Avrebbe dovuto chiamarsi, in origine, «Nel paese dei cavalli selvaggi», ma al momento di disegnarlo Sendak si accorse che la congrega di mostri cui aveva pensato fin dall'inizio non aveva nulla di equino, mentre assomigliava, e molto, alla sua sterminata famiglia ebraica, come il piccolo Sendak l'aveva conosciuta in varie feste comandate della sua infanzia. E così, mostri e mostresse finirono per prendere le fattezze di zii, cugine e affini Sendak, con un effetto che, nei primi anni di vita del libro, spaventò i lettori molto più di quanto l'autore desiderasse: ma che poi invece li conquistò, una volta per tutte. Età di lettura: da 3 anni.

Written in 1963, this classic children’s story stands the test of time. Max is a young boy who is sent to his room without supper.

This book is crap, and let me tell you why. The kid is a jerk and is sent to his room without supper. He proceeds to go to some magical place where these monsters live and he bosses them around and is mean to them. Then he gets back home...having not learned that being a mean jerk is wrong...and the Leggi tutto
"Mom. Mom. Mo-om. Mom. MOM!" My mom whips around. "WHAT??!" "CanIgetabook?" "What?" "Can... I... get... a... book...?" "How much is it?" "$8.50." "What is it?" I brandish a copy of Where The Wild Things Are from behind my back. "Don't you already have that?" "Nuh-uh." "Aren't you a little... old for a book lik Leggi tutto
Wife and I read this to our daughter. Our daughter read it to our granddaughter. Our granddaughter will most likely read it to our great granddaughter, unless by some quirk of fate, she has a son.

I have read the story of Max about 1,000,000 times and my kids love it too. The illustrations are magical and the text is beyond wonderful. It is one of the most fun and rewarding books for a parent to read to a kid (lots of fun making dancing sounds and monster sounds!) and features joyful plot. A
