1 00:00:02,799 --> 00:00:04,700 Where the Wild Things Are 2 00:00:04,700 --> 00:00:08,980 Story and pictures by Maurice Sendak 3 00:00:08,980 --> 00:00:22,699 The night Max wore his wolf suit and made mischief of one kind and another. 4 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,600 His mother called him Wild Thing, and Max said, 5 00:00:32,020 --> 00:00:33,039 I'll eat you up! 6 00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:36,299 So he was sent to bed without eating anything. 7 00:00:36,939 --> 00:00:44,490 That very night, in Max's room, a forest grew 8 00:00:44,490 --> 00:00:48,039 and grew 9 00:00:48,039 --> 00:00:58,750 and grew until his ceiling hung with vines and the walls became the world all around 10 00:00:58,750 --> 00:01:10,359 and an ocean tumbled by with a private boat for Max and he sailed off through night and day 11 00:01:10,359 --> 00:01:24,290 and in and out of weeks and almost over a year to where the wild things are and when he came 12 00:01:24,290 --> 00:01:31,370 to the place where the wild things are, they roared their terrible roars, and gnashed their 13 00:01:31,370 --> 00:01:42,900 terrible teeth, and rolled their terrible eyes, and showed their terrible claws, till Max said, 14 00:01:42,900 --> 00:01:50,900 be still, and tamed them with the magic trick of staring into all their yellow eyes without 15 00:01:50,900 --> 00:02:01,340 blinking once, and they were frightened and called him the most wild thing of all, and made him king 16 00:02:01,340 --> 00:02:31,270 of all wild things. And now, cried Max, let the wild rumpus start. Now stop, Max said, and sent the wild 17 00:02:31,270 --> 00:02:39,610 things off to bed without their supper. And Max, the king of all wild things, was lonely and wanted 18 00:02:39,610 --> 00:02:47,229 to be where someone loved him best of all. Then all around, from far away across the world, 19 00:02:47,789 --> 00:02:54,210 he smelled good things to eat. So he gave up being king of where the wild things are. 20 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:04,860 But the wild things cried, oh, please don't go. We'll eat you up. We love you so. And Max said, 21 00:03:04,860 --> 00:03:14,539 no. The wild things roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth and rolled their 22 00:03:14,539 --> 00:03:23,520 terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws. But Max stepped into his private boat and waved 23 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:32,319 goodbye and sailed back over a year and in and out of weeks and through a day 24 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:40,960 and into the night of his very own room where he found his supper waiting for him 25 00:03:44,599 --> 00:03:58,400 and it was still hot okay so now you are going to draw your own wild thing your own monster 26 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:04,039 and it can look like whatever you want. And then once you're done drawing it, 27 00:04:04,039 --> 00:04:10,340 we're going to describe it. So first we'll say three things that your wild 28 00:04:10,340 --> 00:04:19,519 thing is. So this could be adjectives like tall or short, pink or blue, fat or 29 00:04:19,519 --> 00:04:26,779 thin. And then you're going to describe three things that your wild thing has. So 30 00:04:26,779 --> 00:04:37,019 that would be body parts like claws, fur, or wings. And I'll show you an example with mine. 31 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:50,439 Okay, so this is my wild thing right here. So I'm going to say three things that my wild thing is. 32 00:04:50,439 --> 00:05:08,160 so let's see one thing the color say my wild thing is orange and blue and let's 33 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:20,360 see what else he is thin so I'm also going to write that and then finally my 34 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:37,319 monster is tall. So the three things my wild thing is are orange and blue, thin 35 00:05:37,319 --> 00:05:56,079 and tall. And then for what my wild thing has, I'll talk about his wings. Let's see 36 00:05:56,079 --> 00:06:24,279 what else he has sharp claws right here and here and he also has stripes okay so 37 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:31,079 you're going to draw your own wild thing write three things that it is three 38 00:06:31,079 --> 00:06:36,920 things that it has and then when you're done show it to somebody in your family 39 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,680 and describe it out loud
