The Books Oracle
by Maurice Sendak
When Max is sent to bed without supper, his bedroom transforms into a wild forest, and he sails away to become king of the Wild Things—magnificent monsters who crown him their ruler. Sendak's revolutionary picture book honors children's anger and imagination, acknowledging that wildness can be both exhilarating and lonely. A timeless exploration of childhood emotion through unforgettable imagery.
