These two Mother Goose rhymes open the door to a little boy's kingdom that is interpreted and illustrated by this Caldecott Medalist. Having the liveliness of a child's own imagination, the picture stories extend the boundaries of the rhymes, making them "a superb fantasy."--Booklist.

A little-known Sendak gem,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hector Protector & As I Went Over the Water (Paperback)
This book happens to be my favorite Sendak. Taking two rather obscure Mother Goose rhymes, Sendak creates compelling stories purely through his illustrations. One could read the book entirely through his drawings, without making any reference to the texts. A very imaginative book, particularly as the child who is reading it has to make an effort to look at the pictures to follow the narrative.
