Kurzbeschreibung

Digitally remastered to celebrate the book's 50th anniversary, this new edition brings Sendak's bestselling classic of twentieth-century children's literature back to its original glory

Beschreibung

When Max puts on his wolf suit and makes mischief, his mother calls him 'Wild Thing' and sends him to bed without any supper. Alone in his room, Max enters a magical world and sets sail across the sea to the place where the wild things are. The wild things roar their terrible roars and gnash their terrible teeth and roll their terrible eyes and show their terrible claws . . .

But Max tames the wild things and is made their king.

Will he ever want to go home?

Rezension

"Sendak is the daddy of them all when it comes to picture books - the words, the rhythm and the design are all wonderful." Boyd Tonkin S Magazine, Sunday Express 20050808
