I love Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are, but this book was so strange and left me feeling uncomfortable. The little boy yells at noises, slips out of his clothes and gets put into the cake batter by three of the scariest looking bakers I have ever seen. The whole story felt like an acid trip with no sense or meaning. I am a great believer in using one's imagination, but I did not understand this book and if I were a little kid I would feel frightened by it. I did not find the illustrations to be pleasing either. Would I recommend this book? NO
