As a child, one of my favorite books was Where the Wild Things Are.

It is about a boy who uses his imagination to turn his room into a wild forest where he becomes the King of the Wild Things.

I liked the book mostly because of its great pictures.

Even though the Wild Things are supposed to be fearsome monsters, they are actually quite comical in the pictures.

I also like the book because the story was simple and easy to memorize. I felt proud because I can recite the story even before I knew how to read.
