The Little Bear series is one of them!

I am sad to say, I was not familiar with that title, perhaps because of the 4th of July theme? <br /><br />@Fanny - I was aware of "In the Night Kitchen" and probably borrowed it from the Public Library for my kids. I am more familiar with some of the books he didn't write but illustrated. For instance, the Little Bear series was always a favourite I mine, that I should have mentioned. The animated series doesn't do it justice.Phylly3https://www.blogger.com/profile/10551254554577516351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2201827858670905900.post-60814673672881448562012-05-22T19:02:33.386-05:002012-05-22T19:02:33.386-05:00As soon as I heard the news I checked out a bunch ...As soon as I heard the news I checked out a bunch of his books moreover discovered his latest publication: Bumble-ardy which fortuitously I got to read as guest reader in my third grade class. I'm saying fortuitously because it was a blind guess that the book turned out to be about a piggie celebrating his ninth birthday. So can you tell how I love children's books? LOL <br />My attachment is purely from reading them with my brood as I didn't know his work in my childhood. (I had a hard time grasping Dr. Seuss illustrations for awhile :) <br /> I was lucky to get passed Sendak's works on DVD though Where The Wild Things Are frightened my eldest and Really Rosie was a happy discovery! Unbelievable you only just found out! <br />My favorite is The Night Kitchen read by himself and to my astonishment the kids uttered "why is Mickey naked??" (I'm aware about the fuss he got back then) <br />Thanks for adjusting the settings! What a breeze and I really tried out ALL the browsers I have on my iPad!!Fanny/iz4bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08087468520544914913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2201827858670905900.post-85544784591520985002012-05-11T22:20:30.627-05:002012-05-11T22:20:30.627-05:00"The Sign on Rosie's Door" is a favo..."The Sign on Rosie's Door" is a favorite in our house.jazzbaby1https://www.blogger.com/profile/06089789586446431602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2201827858670905900.post-7927516740963269042012-05-10T09:34:38.620-05:002012-05-10T09:34:38.620-05:00Thanks so much for your comment Fabo!

So many childhood idols or idols of youth have passed away lately. <br /><br />Beautiful post Phylly about the power of books and the memories of childhood. A lovely reminder that Sendak's art will live on.Faboamantohttp://whiterosewritings.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
