Okay, so that's not true, but there is a monster fur-covered copy of Dave Eggers' The Wild Things being released in October, and that's sorta similar. The book, a 300 page kids' novel "based loosely on the storybook by Maurice Sendak and the screenplay co-written with Spike Jonze," will also be available in a PETA-approved cardboard and cardstock cover.
