Sendak's illustration reminds me of the elusiveness of the story creation, the poem's birth....'oh, yes- I got it! Wait, it felt better just ten seconds ago. Okay, how about?....darn, now what was I going to jot down?

"Kids don't know about best sellers. They go for what they enjoy. They aren't star chasers and they don't suck up. It's why I like them."

He's a sad one. He could use some love. He was forced to make children abandon make-believe. As I mentioned to another fan of his, he reminds me of Sendak's magnificent Where the Wild Things Are.

OUTSIDE OVER THERE (1981) by Maurice Sendak. The most disturbing children's picture book ever? A cautionary tale of inattentive babysitting & an obvious influence on the Jim Henson film Labyrinth. Beware the ice, ice baby!

Maurice Sendak's In the Night Kitchen was one of my favorites.. .. the idea of being folded into batter and baked felt weirdly and unresistably enticing for little nico😂

Race exploration, designing for one of the two halfling races in my world.

They're called 'mdyhtsi' and are the children of Elbalath, the god of love and entertainment.

They are mischevious, fun loving people, as you might guess :D

English artist Randolph Caldecott, whose work would impact illustrations for children's books during the 19th century, was born in 1846. Maurice Sendak referred to his work as the "beginning of the modern picture book." The Caldecott Medal was named after him.
