Description:

A delightful book that uses six known children writer's to explore their sources of inspiration. Maurice Sendak (Where the Wild Things Are) talks about his first encounter with the movie "The Wizard of Oz", while Jean Fritz (Homesick: My Own Story) recalls her growing up in China and longing to see America and author Rosemary Wells ( Max & Ruby) talks about what writing for children means to her. A nice collection of essays often humorous but always stimulating. A book with insights, engagingly personal and thoughtful, a must-read for anyone interested in writing for children or for that matter anyone caring about the use and worth of words. "Artful, Provacative and sophisticated." - Library Journal.
