favorite authors passed away earlier today. Maurice Sendak was 83.
Where the Wild Things Are is his best known and most loved book which
was also made into a great movie several years ago. It is also the
basis for my first tattoo, which was brought to life by the amazing
artistic abilities of Amanda Sanchez. I don't know how many hundreds
of times I have read that book to the kids over the years. I have
given it as gifts to countless families. Someday I hope to share it
with my grandkids. My only regret is not sending a photo of my tattoo
to Mr. Sendak and asking for an autograph. I hope wherever he his
tonight his supper is waiting for him. And it's still hot.
