I think Maurice Sendak was probably the character Max who wore the wolf suit.

The author didn't want to scare kids. He wanted to entertain kids by showing how a forest grew in Max's room and by showing creepy monsters in a forest.

The author wanted to tell a story about a naughty kid named Max who was mean to his mom. The author wanted to show that monsters are only in your dreams and imagination. ]]> 2019-02-28 13:20:41 UTC https://padlet.com/lsewald/nly0ad11pf9b/wish/336372074 Stefania: I think the author wrote this book because he wanted to entertain kids and tell them to not be scared at night. The author wanted kids to have better dreams. https://padlet.com/lsewald/nly0ad11pf9b/wish/336376443 I ]]> 2019-02-28 13:30:58 UTC https://padlet.com/lsewald/nly0ad11pf9b/wish/336376443
