President Obama "Where the Wild Things Are"

Last edited Mon Apr 9, 2012, 10:46 PM - Edit history (1)

President Barack Obama reads a book "Where the Wild Things Are" alongside first lady Michelle Obama and their daughters Sasha and Malia during the annual White House Easter Egg Roll in Washington, April 9, 2012 (REUTERS/Jason Reed)




The night Max wore his wolf suit and made mischief of one kind and another his mother called him “WILD THING!” and Max said “I’LL EAT YOU UP!” So he was sent to bed without eating anything.




That very night in Max’s room a forest grew and grew- and grew until his ceiling hung with vines and the walls became the world all around . . . And when he came to the place where the wild things are they roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth and rolled their terrible eyes . . .




Max said “BE STILL!” and tamed them with the magic trick of staring into all their yellow eyes without blinking once and they were frightened and called him the most wild thing of all . . .




The wild things roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth and rolled their terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws . . .
