Shawnee has already marked his death, but I wanted to give his passing more gravitas.
Maurice Sendak has died.

Best known for Where the Wild Things Are, although he was a prolific author.
But if you are only known for one book, at least let it be the most perfect children's book ever.
Or at least in the top five. My top five. I'm sure he stayed at night worrying about that.

The book is almost poetry in its sparse prose.
It holds such appeal to children everywhere. And lasting appeal to those who never grew up.

Maurice Sendak you made an impact on my life with your talent.
Thank you so much.
