A book is really like a lover. It arranges itself in your life in a way that is beautiful. Even as a kid, my sister, who was the eldest, brought books home for me, and I think I spent more time sniffing and touching them than reading. I just remember the joy of the book, the beauty of the binding. The smelling of the interior. Happy.
Maurice SendakKids don't know about best sellers. They go for what they enjoy. They aren't star chasers and they don't suck up. It's why I like them.
