President Obama did an excellent reading of Where the Wild Things Are as part of the White House Easter Egg Roll. This book is a favorite for me and The Son.

For those of you who are unaware, Spike Jonze is directing a movie version of the book. Release is scheduled for October 16, 2009. You can see the trailer for Where the Wild Things Are movie on Apple.

After watching the real trailer, watch the spoof below for Everyone Poops. Another favorite for me and The Son.

Thanks to Tim at the the LibraryThing for pointing out the video of President Obama: Let the Wild Rumpus Start.
