Based on the beloved book by Maurice Sendak, "Where the Wild Things Are" is an adventure for every generation, a classic story about childhood and the places we go to figure out the world we live in.  Opening nationwide October 16, 2009, the film is directed by Spike Jonze and stars Max Records, Catherine Keener, Mark Ruffalo, Lauren Ambrose, Chris Cooper, James Gandolfini, Catherine O'Hara and Forest Whitaker.  

Screenwriter Dave Eggers is the bestselling author of "A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius", "What is the What", and "Zeitoun".  He is also founder of the independent publishing house McSweeney's and 826 National, a family of seven nonprofit organizations dedicated to helping students, ages 6 to 18, with expository and creative writing.  His screenwriting credits also include the recent release "Away We Go", which he co-wrote with Vendela Vida.

All proceeds from the evening go to support 826 Seattle's programs. 826 Seattle is the city's only writing center entirely dedicated to helping students, ages 6 to 18, improve their written communication skills. All 826 programs are structured around the belief that great leaps in learning can happen with one-on-one attention and that strong writing skills are fundamental to a young person's future success. With the help of hundreds of volunteers, 826 Seattle offers free after-school tutoring, special writing workshops, class field trips, in-school programs, and publishing opportunities for Seattle students to improve their ability to communicate effectively in writing.

More information about 826 Seattle can be found at www.826seattle.org.
