Quotes
Caldecott is too careful and too elegant an artist to become melodramatic; he never forces an issue, he just touches it lightly. And you can't say it's a tragedy, but something hurts. Like a shadow quickly passing over. (From "Randolph Caldecott," 24)
Where did you get such a crazy, scary idea for a book? I believe I can try to answer it now if it is rephrased as follows: What is your vision of the truth, and what has it to do with children? (From "Caldecott Medal Acceptance," 1964, 150)
Where the Wild Things Are was not meant to please everybody - only children. (154)
Despite the fact that I don't write with children in mind, I long ago discovered that they make the best audience. They certainly make the best critics. (From "An Informal Talk," 214) ( )
