For those still not in the know, Maurice Sendak has a new book coming out in September called Bumble-Ardy. It's the first book he's both written and illustrated in 30 years, the last one being Outside Over There.
Though it's about a pig instead of a boy, it's loosely based on an animated short he did for Sesame Street way back when...
Guess who's psyched about this?
