I know a Max named after this. He wore a wolf suit to his 18th birthday party and did indeed make mischief of one kind and another, though not the ones depicted in the book.
"and sailed back over a year
and in and out of weeks
and through a day"
Remembering Maurice Sendak, #botd in 1928.
from Where the Wild Things Are - my favorite page in the book. It's Max's look of stoic resignation that I love so much.
