But it’s true that there’s nothing quite like being confounded and moved by a book, and dreaming about it afterward, when you’re a kid. I miss that!!

I’m one of the few people who didn’t grow up reading Where the Wild Things Are. I do feel like I’ve missed out on something special.

Still kind of weird to know all your childhood heroes are passing away…
