Hello Susan,
This past Spring semester, we had to read and review 100 children's books
in 7 different catagories. At the beginning of each class, my instructor
reads a quality children's book to us and one day she read Where the Wild
Things Are. I decided to add this book to my evaluations in the caldocott
catagory and did a search for it on bookshare. So, I share in your praises
on the descriptions of the wild things. I had never heard of, let alone read
this book before that class. After reading the book, I quickly went and
purchased it and added it to my collection and have dubbed it to the favs'
list. Maurice Sendax other books are great as well and I have started adding
them also. So sorry to hear of his passing.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we
are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most
frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,
talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened
about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are
all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory
of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And
as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission
to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence
automatically liberates others."-Mariann Williamson

Hi Booksharian Friends,
Upon hearing of the death of the author of the children's book Where The
Wild Things Are, I immediately searched on Bookshare and found it. As I had
never read this book before, I was not only pleasantly surprised to find it
but equally pleasurable were the described images someone had worked very
hard on! A great big thanks to whoever added this book to the collection!
Fantastic job! Happy scanning, proofing and reading!
Best Always,
Susan
