The definitive visual tribute to the twentieth century’s most revolutionary children’s book creator.

While millions know Maurice Sendak as the mastermind behind Where the Wild Things Are, his sixty-year career stretched far beyond the borders of the night kitchen.

This expansive, full-color monograph pulls back the curtain on the multi-dimensional artist. With more than 200 images from the premier private collections of Justin G. Schiller and Dennis M.V. David, this volume showcases lesser-known sides of Sendak: from commercial advertisements and department store window displays to his stunning, world-class costume and set designs for opera and theater.

Edited by renowned children’s literature historian Leonard S. Marcus, the collection is anchored by twelve intimate essays from friends, scholars, and collaborators like Steven Heller, Iona Opie, and Paul O. Zelinsky.

Richly illustrated with rare preliminary sketches, personal correspondence, and private artwork, this book is both a masterclass in illustration history and an irreplaceable collector's item for anyone who grew up under the spell of Sendak's wild world.

Beautifully produced and generously illustrated and published in conjunction with a major exhibition at the Society of Illustrators in New York, this is a book designed to be returned to—whether to revisit favorite images, discover details that might have been missed, or share with others.

“A must-have for Sendak fans.” —BookPage.com

Platform too squishy, not supportive
Size: 11, Color: Sand Suede
The soles on these shoes while they feel comfortable do not provide enough support. I ended up rolling my ankle when walking across a concrete lot when I stepped on a couple of rocks. The soles were so mushy that the side of my foot just rolled out. Due to the height my ankle traveled from the platform shoe to the ground … internal damage happened. I had to have surgery to repair the ligaments providing ankle support. So tread carefully.

The most comfy shoes I own!
Size: 9.5, Color: Sand Suede
Do you know what I mean when I say these shoes are so ugly they are cute? They are not the prettiest shoes but boy do I love them!!! And I get tons of compliments all the time. They are sooooo comfortable! It’s like walking on cushions! They run a little big so I would suggest going down a 1/2 of size. I wear them with dresses and pants. I can wear these all day and that’s important for a 60ish year old woman! A little pricey but well worth every penny!

Love them
Size: 5.5, Color: Red Pepper
I have gotten so many compliments on these shoes! They’re true to size and comfortable. Because of the material feet might sweat easier if hot but they dry quick. Quality is great and the color looks good, it’s more of a orange/red color. I got a 5.5 size
