Publisher Description
This iconic story has inspired a movie, an opera, and the imagination of generations.
"When Max dresses in his wolf suit and causes havoc in the house, his mother sends him to bed. From there, Max sets sail to an island inhabited by the Wild Things, who name him king and share a wild rumpus with him. But then from far away across the world, Max smells good things to eat...Mary Pols of Time magazine wrote that ""what makes Sendak's classic so compelling is its grounding effect: Max has a tantrum and in a flight of fancy visits his wild side, but he is pulled back by a belief in parental love to a supper 'still hot."" Generations have shared this beautiful story, and children of all ages will want to return to it again and again."""Download and start listening now!

" This audiobook is wildly overpriced; it only runs for about 5 minutes. Please, don't waste your money on it. "
