Where the Wild Things Are (reprinted in 1988) by Harper Collins Publishers. Signed, dated and dedicated in ink by the author: "For Peter - a best friend! Maurice Sendak Aug. 2010". Excellent condition, with dust jacket.
Maurice Sendak was one of the pre-eminent children's book authors and illustrators of the twentieth century. Sendak studied at Art Students League. Sendak's reputation as a children's book illustrator was firmly established with his drawings for Ruth Krauss's book A Hole Is to Dig (1952). Sendak's stories are enjoyed in thirteen languages, and 3,000 of his drawings are housed in the A.S.W. Rosenbach Museum and Library in Philadelphia. In 1988 he became artistic director of the Sundance Children's Theatre, a newly created branch of Robert Redford's Sundance Institute. Sendak has also taught at Yale University and the Parsons School of Design.
