let the wild rumpus start

Oliver Jeffers’s Lost and Found animated! trailer here

“…a glowing example of how children’s books should be adapted to film — in a style that is faithful to the original artwork, and, at 25 minutes long, not stretched and padded to meet some arbitrary 90-minute feature length. (I’m looking at you, The Cat in the Hat)” - (via Drawn!)

Okay enough with Where The Wild Things Are. Let’s spread the love. Strega Nona is the bomb.

I… don’t remember what this is about, but I do know I read it as a child.  Actually, that’s exactly like Where the Wild Things Are.

Tomi Ungerer

His first children’s book, “The Mellops Go Flying,” about a family of daring French pigs, was published to glowing reviews in 1957, the same year he introduced his friend Shel Silverstein to his editor, who would soon publish another of Mr. Ungerer’s friends, Maurice Sendak.

“No one, I dare say, no one was as original,” Mr. Sendak said of him. “Tomi influenced everybody.”
