Far Out Isn't Far Enough: The Tomi Ungerer Story Quote
Maurice Sendak: There were lots of taboos in the children's book world. The concepts of children and what they felt and thought - none of it was real. We wanted them to only think of bunny rabbits and lettuce leaves and blue skies and white clouds and shit like that. It really was like a conspiracy against children, which persists. The assumption is that children are innocent, vacant and mindless. Why give them anything?
