"An imaginative story like no other..."
Spending your time out in your room without dinner...a perfect time to slip off and rule the monster world. My children and I love this book so much. We have read it a hundred times. The audiobook is a joy to listen to and my kids got lost in the reader's voices. We highly recommend this audiobook for your children ages 2-92!

"Fun for kids and parents"
This is always FUN to read to your kids. But if YOU'VE never heard it read before, I strongly recommend that you download this and listen to the narration. Both you and your child will love it, and it will inspire your reading in the years to come.

"Audible app buttons in the way"
Any additional comments?I haven't seen these before, you know, the picture books on audible that have picture changes corresponding to the story as you listen to it. It's a shame that the current version of the iphone app has giant buttons blocking the view of the pictures. Why no hide option? For this reason, this and any picture book on audible becomes a bit of a waste of money for such a short audio clip and minimal visual experience. Fix the problem and the experience would be much improved.

"Most requested at our house!"
What did you love best about Where the Wild Things Are?Other than the story the music is perfect my 2 year old twins yell monster music everytime we play it the narrator did a great job too!
What about Peter Schickele’s performance did you like?He has a gravelly voice that fit this story so well!
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?We'll eat you up we love you so!
Any additional comments?This version has the pictures but I found that my boys like it better just listening.

"Narrated Picture Book!"
This is exactly what I was looking for from Audible: a narrated picture book. I have a kindle fire and I want the kids to see the original pictures and listen to a great story teller.
Where are the other ones like this?! I don't even see anything in the description that indicates that the pictures change as the story plays... If anyone knows, please help!0 of 0 people found this review helpful -
"Really Great !!"
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?It was short, and had excellent character voices and sound effects.
Who was your favorite character and why?the beast of course!
What does Peter Schickele bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?He's one of the best male narrators for children's books I've run across.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?Sure. I could handle all 6 minutes!!!

"Exceeded Expectations"
If you could sum up Where the Wild Things Are in three words, what would they be?I don't know what I was expecting, I just bought it because it's a familiar story for my kids (3 and 5) but the performance and background music make this one of our favorites!
What about Peter Schickele’s performance did you like?The rolling of eyes and knashing of teeth of course!
