Masterpiece...
The only bad things in this book are Max doing tons of horrible things. That is all I have to say about this wonderful book.

Good!
I was never a huge fan of this book and as a young child, the monsters kind of scared me even though they were supposed to be kind monsters. It is classic, however, and no child should miss out on it.

One of the best children't books.
I always loved this book when i was younger. It's not that scary; but the 'wild things' might be too scary for younger kids.

My fav show! They absolutely must bring it back for a second season. Mild violence is as far as it goes and is recommended for anyone who craves a good thriller.
