L.O.V.E...IT'S ALL ABOUT KAREN O AND THE KIDS

I have been waiting for months to see Where The Wild Things Are! Finally, Friday came and I headed out to see the show. I couldn't wait to see how this 9 sentence book was about to come to life. I grew up on this book as a kid, so you can imagine my excitement when I heard this was being made into a movie.

All I can say is WOW - this movie was FANTASTIC! It was so magical and I felt so nostalgic. Don't listen to what the critics say...you MUST see this movie! And it wouldn't be complete with out Karen O working her magic on the score/soundtrack. All the songs were a perfect fit for this movie. I loved it...I so can't wait to see it again!
