Hector Protector and As I Went Over the Water

Más información sobre el libro

Maurice Sendak brings to the picture book page two favorite Mother Goose rhymes. His beautiful paintings have the aliveness and immediacy of a child's own imaginings. The many admirers of  Where the Wild Things Are  and  The Nutshell Library  will recognize in Hector Protector and the seafarer of  As I Went Over the Water  the same pugnaciousness, love of mischief, and derring-do that characterize Max and Pierre. And they will agree that the beloved Maurice Sendak created a picture book of astounding originality. "For collectors and budding readers alike," proclaimed Publishers Weekly.
