"Fifty years after Where the Wild Things Are was published comes the last book Maurice Sendak completed before his death in May 2012, My Brother's Book. With influences from Shakespeare and William Blake, Sendak pays homage to his late brother, Jack, whom he credited for his passion for writing and drawing.

This one is difficult to rate. Two stars if read as a children's book (it's WAY too morbid and complex for picture-book), four if read as a poem. ( )

A beautiful send-off, this is Sendak's last written work, and an ode and farewell to his brother. An elegy that is so quaint, so beautiful, and so haunting, its written beautifully as a poem that most likely is best understood by one person - Jack; his brother, but thankfully we can all appreciate and understand some of it.

I remember reading and re-reading and re-re-re-reading Where the Wild Things Are so many times as a child. Identifying so much with that small boy. And I remember Little Bear and the show and watching that nonstop as a child as well. Sendak was a treasure. And still is. ( )

"...bark enclosed his living trunk,
Bare vines entwined his glittering head.
Ask of the wild cheery tree:
Does he live? Is he dead?"

Although gone, Sendak lives in the dense visual and verbal imagery of love & grief of "My Brother's Book."

"And you will dream of me." ( )

A tribute to his dead brother, Jack and the last book Maurice wrote and illustrated, based in part on Shakespeare's The Winter Tale. A little bit scary, and a little bit confusing, it was the confusing part that subtracted from the telling. ( )
