An Incredible Author

Maurice Sendak author of Where The Wild Things Are and other children's stories has passed to the Summerland on Tuesday. He was an fabulous writer. He will forever live in our hearts and imaginations. I remember discovering him for the first time when I had taken a children's literature class in college. At the time my own daughters were young. I purchased his book right off.  They loved it as I read it to them. Remember to always read stories to your children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews or any child possible. They will forever be blessed for it. My daughters are now reading to my grandchildren. My mother always made certain there were books in the house for us kids as we did for our children and our grown children are doing for their children.
