Wild things - childlike, similar to Max
Mother - typical parent-figure

Connecting with Max
- Able to relate to his feelings and thoughts (when he comes up with the idea of the island with the wild things out of anger)
- Finding an escape for feelings (having a safe place)
- Understanding people's intentions (when he becomes the king and begins to treat the wild things like how his mother treats him)
- Wanting the ability to impose authority (Max telling the wild things that they do not get super)

Repetition - "terrible roars, terrible teeth, terrible eyes, terrible claws",  "and sailed back over a year
and in and out of weeks
and through a day"

Rhyme - "But the wild things cried, “Oh please don’t go, we’ll
eat you up-we love you so!”
And Max said, “No!”

Running sentences - "That very night in Max’s room a forest grew
and grewand
grew until his ceiling hung with vines
and the walls became the world all around
and an ocean tumbled by with a private boat for Max
and he sailed off through night and day
and in and out of weeks
and almost over a year
to where the wild things are."]]> 2016-12-05 04:28:49 UTC https://padlet.com/thx2/6vac3gh9rus5/wish/141651727 Samantha, Yoke Cheng, Leoni https://padlet.com/thx2/6vac3gh9rus5/wish/141651806 Theme 

Dealing with emotions and reflecting on them. 

Children are able to relate to Max as they would have been punished by their parents before. They would have their own ways of managing their emotions and regulating themselves. Hence, this book would validate their emotions and techniques, and teach them a lesson about reconciliation about any event that has happened (realising that their parents still love them no matter what). 
The children would be attracted to the idea that Max was able to 'escape' and use his imagination to reflect on the whole situation and resolves his feelings.

Max's mum told him to go to bed. His bedroom's wall became the world around him.  He sailed a boat to where the wild things are. He did various stuff with the wild things. After, he was done, he sailed back to his room and found his supper which was still hot. 

The fantasy and imagination involved. Sometimes, when the children are lying on bed, they may imagine themselves in another world.  This form of plot appeals to children as it is relatable since children imagine themselves in different worlds all the time.
