![]() I recently became aware of the Maurice Sendak Foundation which is devoted to promoting greater public interest in and understanding of the literary, illustrative and theatrical arts as well as promoting the artistic legacy of Maurice Sendak. The book is very well-loved (falling apart) and I have shared it with my children as a bedtime story too many times to count. The illustrations enchanted me and the imaginative verses enthralled me. I still remember exactly where I was (in my 1st-grade classroom) and who I was with (my best friend, Ashlee) when our teacher read that book to us. It was a cute little thing called Chicken Soup With Rice. I admit though, that was not the first Maurice Sendak book I was ever introduced to. ![]() Is there anyone out there who doesn’t love that book? I doubt it. Maurice Sendak is an author you are probably familiar with… he wrote Where the Wild Things Are. ![]()
