Where the Wild Things Are [Libby]. Weston Woods Studios, a subsidiary of SCHOLASTIC Inc, 1988. Format: OverDrive OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, Filesize: 2824kB. Format: OverDrive OverDrive Listen, Filesize: 2824kB. Juvenile Fiction. Juvenile Literature. Sendak's book has been a children's classic for more than 20 years, and this audio version only makes it better. Peter Schickele manages to portray all of Max's emotions--anger, sadness, joy, and loneliness--using varied pace, elongated words, clear enunciation, and the staccato pattern of young children's speech. And while at first he sounds too gruff, as soon as he softens his voice, his performance becomes the epitome of the lightening fast mood changes of childhood. The jazzy musical accompaniment--full of drums, trumpets, and horns--also by Schickele, builds to a crescendo during the "wild rumpus." An excellent reading of a true classic, and a book young children will certainly identify with. W.L.S. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine. AudioFile Magazine. Max is the hero of this beloved children's classic in which he makes mischief, sails away, tames the wild things and returns home for supper. Media Type: Audiobook. Caldecott Medal.
