Guess what's around the corner, kids (by the way when I say 'kids' I mean us illustrators/authors out there, who really are just big kids).  Halloween--one of my favorite holidays!  A book you might want to pick up this year--if you missed it last year--is Mommy? by Maurice Sendak, Arthur Yorinks and Matthew Reinhart.  It's a beautifully created, extremely intricate pop-up book that will leave your jaw dropping to the floor.
I found a video on youtube which talks about the book and includes an interview with Sendak.  This video is the first time I've actually seen Sendak 'in person' since all of what I knew about him previously was through articles and interviews in books.  He's equally as animated and expressive as his characters.  Enjoy!

I was really glad to see this, thanks Paige.
You're very welcome Eric!
Yay! Thank you for sharing this. He's (Maurice Sendak) one of my writer/illustrator heroes. It's great to see him and hear him talk about his work.
