“Where the Wild Things Are” by Maurice Sendak

I can recall reading this book over and over again to both of my children.  I knew it by heart and, at times, kind of grew weary of reading it.  Now that I have a grandson, I will be reading the story to him no doubt (when he’s a little bigger).

I can’t decide whether or not to see the film.  It seems like it might follow the book but the book is a made-up world and sometimes fantasy films just don’t quite measure up. Look at Lord of the Rings.  In many ways the movies caused more folks to actually read the books but the books and movies are often nothing alike.

This week I will decide.  Then I’ll let you know.
