RIP Maurice Sendak

RIP Maurice Bernard Sendak (June 10, 1928 – May 8, 2012)

“Oh, please don’t go — we’ll eat you up — we love you so!”

yes, a great loss.

Wasn’t that the book that George W Bush claimed he loved as a kid, but someone worked out it wasn’t written until he was in his twenties?

edit: it was actually “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” by another author.
