Where The Wild Things Are - Maurice Sendak

Where the Wild Things Are will take you and your students on a magical journey of imagination and adventure. This book is about a young boy who gets in trouble and goes on an adventure to figure out his wild side. This is a great book to get to know your students and understand their imagination and laughter. The reading level is at a 3.4 (3rd grade and 4th month) based on an accelerated reader leveling system. A great activity would be for students to come up with their own scenarios of their imagination and/or draw the picture they are envisioning.
