Max misbehaves and is sent to his room without supper. While there, he uses his imagination to sail to the place where the wild things are. Max tames these ferocious creatures and becomes their king, but he misses being loved. He soon finds himself back in his room where supper waits, still hot. Animated version of Maurice Sendak's Caldecott Medal-winning book.
