Here is 2: I have a vague memory of elementary school. we had been read "Chicken Soup With Rice"" & "Where the wild things aree" of course. (There is more stories but I dont think I will share them now to make this thing longer) and i believ in 2nd grade, I discovered my teacher had a 45 rpm of someone singing "CHICKEN SOUP WITH RICE" on a 45 rpm. Because of my memory, I remember the record label design "ODE" (same label as Cheech & CHong AND Carole King) not only did this blog make me remember that 45, but now I found out who did it. but HERE IS ANOTHER SURREAL MEMORY: At the public library, I remember a record on the (infamous) "CAMDEN" label (A subsidary of RCA that re issued Elvis Presley Junk and a lot of Childrens records and 'educational' records. Maybe books on record) and I remember a record that both had a reading of "WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE" & "CHICKEN SOUP WITH RICE" but in retrospect, they were being read by a woman with a kinda scary voice. But I cant find any further information online about it. Does anybody know what I am talking about or was I dreaming this whole thing?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-36793968572135070482009-04-04T23:25:00.000-05:002009-04-04T23:25:00.000-05:00I was so bugged when I heard they were making a mo...I was so bugged when I heard they were making a movie of this, but then I saw the trailer and LOVED it. I'm not sure whether or not to show it to my son either (he'll be close to three when it comes out) - then again, he is named Max (after the Max in the book, of course)...Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08213514826661790158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-27343591258852554202009-03-31T00:54:00.000-05:002009-03-31T00:54:00.000-05:00I adore this book and so do my two girls.I have th...I adore this book and so do my two girls.<BR/>I have thought long and hard about the movie and think I will get it on DVD when it comes out so they can watch it in our own home rather than on a huge screen which will probably induce nightmares.<BR/>PinnyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-91235568628588897412009-03-26T19:32:00.000-05:002009-03-26T19:32:00.000-05:00I love this book, and I hope the movie is just as ...I love this book, and I hope the movie is just as good!
