A book for all ages offers a novelization of the movie Where the Wild Things Are, based on the classic children's book of the same name by Maurice Sendak, in which a boy flees his home only to end up in the land of the Wild Things. Simultaneous. Movie tie-in.

"THE WILD THINGS is easily the best book ever adapted from a movie that was adapted from a picture book--but it also succeeds in its own right. Dave Eggers has written a novel that is deeply imaginative, slightly strange, occasionally dark, and ultimately touching."

Matt Compton, USA Today, 10/07/2009

"The real question, when it comes to literature, is whether a particular author is interested in hustling us through a breakneck plot...investigating the internal lives of his or her creations. The best books - and I happily include THE WILD THINGS on this list - manage to do both....Eggers has written a book for readers of all ages, without dumbing down his prose. But his highest achievement is in having found a fresh way to tell us a story we already know so well, about the monstrous forces of love and hate that mark every childhood--and pursue us howling into adulthood."

Steve Almond, Boston Globe, 10/11/2009
