review:
Despite the clear popularity of this book for children, I’m not actually able to put my finger on what makes it seem to great to some people. The art by Maurice Sendak is quite wonderful in a muted, detail-oriented kind of way, but I can’t escape the notion that the lesson found in the story is “Act like a brat and you can have great adventures.”
