I've just watched the trailer for the Where the Wild Things Are film (twice!) - it looks amazing, just gorgeous. This is my favourite book of all time, by my favourite illustrator of all time and I was worried that the film might ruin it, but it doesn't look so! Roll on December...
I also found a site selling Sendak's original roughs and studies (above), what I wouldn't give to own one of these... http://www.everypicture.com/original-art/maurice-sendak/3860/max-roars.html
