Summary: A young boy has big plans for the house where he lives
Comment: When you think of the detailed line drawings Maurice Sendak created for his classic children's book "Where the Wild Things Are," these water color illustrations will seem quite simple in comparison. The difference of course, is in the story being told. Author Ruth Krauss captures the free-spirited thought processes of young children in this whimsical romp through the mind of a young boy who wants to paint his bathroom blue. He has many other ideas about how the house in which he lives should be and quickly lets his imagination run away. His simple thoughts are captured by Sendak's eloquent art work. However, in the end I think it is the thoughts expressed in this story, rather than the artwork, that will capture the imagination of young children. Krauss gives children the freedom to think about the world they want to live in, which is a pretty great gift.

Summary: Lovely quiet dreamy book
Comment: I read the tattered library copy of this book to my daughter for years. I'm thrilled it is re-published. It is the story of a fanciful, silly, invented world.
