"Where the Wild Things Are", perhaps
Where the Wild Things Are (Hardcover Comic)
by Maurice Sendak
Where the Wild Things Are is one of those truly rare books that can be enjoyed equally by a child and a grown-up. If you disagree, then it's been too long since you've attended a wild rumpus. Max dons his wolf suit in pursuit of some mischief and gets sent to bed without supper. Fortuitously, a forest grows in his room, allowing his wild rampage to continue unimpaired. Sendak's color illustrations (perhaps his finest) are beautiful, and each turn of the page brings the discovery of a new wonder.
The wild things--with their mismatched parts and giant eyes--manage somehow to be scary-looking without ever really being scary; at times they're downright hilarious. Sendak's defiantly run-on sentences--one of his trademarks--lend the perfect touch of stream of consciousness to the tale, which floats between the land of dreams and a child's imagination.
This Sendak classic is more fun than you've ever had in a wolf suit, and it manages to reaffirm the notion that there's no place like home.

I think that you might be talking about "Where the Wild Things Are".
Does the boy become king? If so, that is the book.

It has got to be "Where the Wild Things Are" by Maurice Sendak

It is a brilliant book, and no child's library is complete without it. My youngest is 14, and we still have our copy.
Along with, "Each Peach Pear Plum" and "But where is the green parrot?"
