Thanks for all the craft ideas and lesson plan links! I've loved the book since I was a kid and can't wait to see the movie. I'm a little nervous that it won't live up to my expectations, but I'm glad about all the attention the book is now getting, after all these years. It adds another level of interest when I use it in class. When I do so I've found a couple great ebooks of activities very helpful at http://www.dedicatedteacher.com that are specifically for "Where the Wild Things Are". Thanks again for all the great info.
