** A Geek Daddy received the featured product for free to review **
Maurice Sendak's Where The Wild Things Are was one of my favorite picture books as a child and it maintains a prominent spot on my children's bookshelf as well. So my son and I enjoyed spending some time reading together a parody of this classic story that is devoted to telling the tale of running away from life through the perspective of a dad. In this new adaption of the story, a tired and emotional dad finds himself transported to the place WHERE THE WILD DADS WENT.
The night Dad had a few cheeky ones after work,
forgot the milk and tripped over the rubbish,
Mum called him A Wild Thing
and said "Don't mind me!"
and spend the rest of the night on the phone
with Debs from down the road.
Just like the boy in Where The Wild Things Are, the dad in this story wishes to escape from the doldrums of life to a place where he can just have fun. He finds himself transported to a fantastic world full of beer drinking, air guitar playing, and foosball bouts. Pretty soon though he begins to miss the place he left behind.

WHERE THE WILD DADS WENT is available as a hardcover book or a digital Kindle download from Amazon.com.
