Cal loves those books. The license of them, probably, since he too is fond of yelling: "I'll EAT YOU UP!" and running around (almost) naked. But then, he also loves the music the Scholastic cartoons associated with Sendak's stuff. That Where the Wild Things Are and Others DVD is one of the best impulse buys I've ever made.

He would make a good Max.

This one does not surprise, though it does dismay; so it goes.

His memory for a wild blessing.

Yes.

He leaves a lot behind.

Oh, no. I hadn't heard :(

He'll be missed.

It was the very first piece of news I saw when I started up my computer this morning. (I promptly inflicted it on someone else.) Like [livejournal.com profile] cucumberseed, I don't think I was surprised, but still saddened.

He'll be missed.

A wake is a kind of rumpus, right?

Stephen Colbert is playing further excerpts from his interview with Sendak on The Colbert Report.

His work was so transformative for so many of us, I can't see how it could be other than wild and wonderful.

A blessing on us all.

Wow. That's some compliment.

He saw it, he loved it, he ate it.

That is best.

Indeed.

Thank you for sharing the obituary. Heavens, I'd no idea he lived in this area.

The Yale Rep staged Brundibár in 2006; I saw it. Sendak did the production design.

We need to stop losing all the good queers.

Also, I think I scared that Teddy person. Regrets.

He definitely grew into his cranky.

Also, I think I scared that Teddy person. Regrets.

I don't see how you did. He has a day job and children; I assume he'll be back.
