Children’s book author and illustrator Maurice Sendak, of Where the Wild Things Are fame, died yesterday. You can read his obituary on the New York Times. Most notable among his achievements is bring a darker tone to children's books. Do yourself a favor and watch his interview on the Colbert Report (parts 1 and 2 above), he was a witty, delightful curmudgeon up until his last days.
