Bears

By Ruth Krauss · Illustrated by Maurice Sendak About

There are ‘bears, bears, everywheres’ in this hilarious rhyming text, coupled with the classic illustration style of Sendak. With just 27 words, the inimitable Ruth Krauss created a charming little universe. Now Maurice Sendak has turned her bears into a troupe of players in a slapstick comedy starring a familiar boy in a wolf suit. A perfectly surreal bedtime read for young children.

Maurice Sendak

Maurice Sendak was born in Brooklyn, New York. He began by illustrating other authors’ books for children, but the first book that he both wrote and illustrated was Kenny’s Window, published in 1956. Since then he has illustrated over 80 books, and has won many awards, including the 1964 Caldecott Medal for WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE. In 1970 he was the first American to win the Hans Christian Andersen Illustrator’s Medal. In 1978 the University of Boston made him Doctor of Humane Letters and in 1983 he won the Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal for a ‘substantial and lasting contribution to literature for children over a period of years’.
