Title: Where the Wild Things Are
Author & Illustrator:Maurice Sendak
What we like about this book:
Where the Wild Things Are is one of those books that can be enjoyed equally by children and grown-ups. Its wonderfully illustarted and nicely balances the child's need for imaginative thinking with a dose of reality. Your heart gets warmed by the sheer innocence of Max and how he could imagine his room as forest and escape to it. Sendak touches on the fact that parents love their children no matter what ....this book makes it o.k. to be sent to your room once in a while.
Reading this book to your children gives you the opportunity to teach them about obedience, stewardship, love, our choice of words, consequences and more.It also helps overcome the fear of monsters!
