important part of life when we create real memories is childhood.
Where the Wild Things Are, Maurice Sendak

fantasy stories, where there are a hero
and a bad person. The hero fights with the bad guy and wins in the end. Maurice has also attempted to convey the same
story but with a little monstrous twist of his pen.
