I love Where the Wild Things Are, this man brought a lot of joy to many kids and adults.
Maurice Sendak, widely considered the most important childrens book artist of the 20th century, who wrenched the picture book out of the safe, sanitized world of the nursery and plunged it into the dark, terrifying and hauntingly beautiful recesses of the human psyche, died on Tuesday in Danbury, Conn. He was 83 and lived in Ridgefield, Conn.
