BrightLight Books operates multiple stores and we invite you to browse the inventory of those stores here, at BrightLightBooks.com. Each store ships online orders independently, so if you would like to take advantage of our free shipping offers, you'll need to take note of which stores have the items you are interested in.

For example, if you have $25 or more items from Fern Park on your order, and a single $5.99 item from RTS Oveido, the item from our RTS Oveido store would incur a $4.99 shipping charge.

Similarly, if you have an order that is less than $25 from two stores, you would incur two $4.99 shipping charges.

Your current order breaks down as follows:

Item Conditions

It's very important to us that you are happy with the condition of every item you receive. We try to describe every item briefly but accurately. Here are our guidelines:

• Brand New:

  A brand-new item is an unused item in its original packaging that we have ordered either from the publisher or from a wholesale distributor.

• Like New:

  A like-new item is an item in essentially brand new condition.

• Very Good:

  A very good item is a used item with normal but limited used-item wear. The item is complete and unmarked but might have some minimal curling or bumping of corners, some small tears in the dustjacket, or a previous owner's name on the front end page.

• Good:

  A good item is a used item that will have moderate wear that might include:
  
      • a torn or missing dustjacket
      • hightlighting or underlining 20% or less
      • spotting on page edges
      • inscription on the front end page
      • creasing on spine
  
  These flaws will be noted in its description details.

• Acceptable:

  An acceptable item is a used item that is heavy wear that might include:
  
      • a missing or very worn/torn dustjacket
      • hightlighting or underlining more than 20%
      • heavy spotting on page edges
      • inscription on the front end page
      • heavy creasing on spine
  
  The flaws will be noted in an item's description details.

• Withdrawn Library:

  BrightLight Books buys and recycles withdrawn library items. These items will have clear, plastic dustjacket covers taped down and spine stickers typical of library-circulated items. But they will be in at least Good to Very Good condition unless otherwise noted.

About the Book

Max is a rambunctious eight-year-old whose world is changing around him: His father is absent, his mother is increasingly distracted, and his teenage sister has outgrown him. Sad and angry, Max dons his wolf suit and makes terrible, ruinous mischief, flooding his sister�s room and driving his mother half-crazy. Convinced his family doesn�t want him anymore, Max flees home, finds a boat and sails away. Arriving on an island, he meets strange and giant creatures who rage and break things, who trample and scream. These beasts do everything Max feels inside, and so, Max appoints himself their king. Here, on a magnificent adventure with these funny and complex monsters, Max can be the wildest thing of all. In this visionary adaptation of Maurice Sendak's classic work, Dave Eggers brings an imaginary world vividly to life, telling the story of a lonely boy navigating the emotional journey away from boyhood.
