Sendak, M. (1963). Where the wild things are. New York: Harper & Row.
Max slips on his wolf suit , gets in trouble, and gets sent to bed without supper. His imagination slips away as he slips away for over a year where the wild things are. The "wild things" become afraid of him as he commands them to be still. The animals make him king of all wild things. He sails back home after a year and finds his supper waiting for him. It is a wonderful that depicts the power of the imagination. A book and an island kids will love to wander to and visit perfect for elementary grades. The illustrations are rich with such detail and texture. The illustrations compliment the plot perfectly.
