Where the Wild Things Are t-shirts now available

[J.D. Hildebrand]

I don't know if this will mean as much to everyone else as it does to me, but I grew up with Where the Wild Things Are -- it must be my favorite children's book. (What's your favorite?)

Anyway...the good folks at Urban Outfitters at Garden State Plaza (I wandered in while having some shoes repaired at Hakky, have you discovered that place yet?) have introduced a t-shirt with the cover artwork and title of the book on it! It's $28, which is a lot to pay for a t-shirt, but I found it irresistible. They had my number, you know?

If you love Maurice Sendak the way I do, grab one of these shirts before they're gone!

Incidentally, there's a Maurice Sendak program -- celebrating the author's 80th birthday -- at the 92nd St. Y in Manhattan on Monday, September 15, at 8 p.m. You qualify for a $10 ticket if you're under 35. Check it out by clicking here.
