Monday hero: Maurice Sendak (II)

One of my alltime favorite illustrators is Maurice Sendak (1928-2012), about whom I already wrote a Monday Hero blog earlier.

Sendak not only illustrated children's books, but also stories by for instance Isaac Bashevis Singer, and Tolstoy.

It is beautiful work.

It always occurs to me that his people are stocky and short, as if the grown ups are just big children really.
