I suppose it was a good time to make this forum named "Where The Wild Things Are". Maurice wrote and illustrated the book.

Please edit thread title to fix spelling error. His last name is Sendak.

Also, he had a nice, long, distinguished life. We should all be so lucky. Hard to be sad about someone like him dying.
