Don’t we all secretly wish we could go where the Wild Things are? (And be back in time for dinner?)
In memoriam of Maurice Sendak, who died on the morning of May 8, 2012, in Danbury, Connecticut, from complications of a stroke.
“From their earliest years children live on familiar terms with disrupting emotions; fear and anxiety are an intrinsic part of their everyday lives, they continually cope with frustrations as best they can. And it is through fantasy that children achieve catharsis. It is the best means they have for taming Wild Things.” (Maurice Sendak)
