7/2/2023 0 Comments In the night kitchen pictures(There is/was a lot of controversy about this and resulted in In the Night Kitchen becoming a banned book. The kids will get a perverse giggle out of a full-frontal Mickey landing in the cake batter *snicker*. I loved the buildings of pantry goodies with mixing blades, light bulb cages, and handles acting as building toppers in those warm, soft browns and reds. Just like Mickey, I was falling - into the story’s illustrations, fascinated by the “kitchen” Sendak created. And it’s one of those awarded books that truly deserve it! My Take In 1982, it won the Vlag en Wimpel Penseeljury. In 19, it won the Brooklyn Art Books for Children. In 1971, it won the Caldecott Honor Book and received an Honor Citation for the Carey-Thomas Award. In 1970, In the Night Kitchen won the Best Books of 1970, Outstanding Children’s Books of 1970, Best Illustrated Children’s Books of 1970, Children’s Books of 1970 (Library of Congress), and Notable Children’s Books of 1940–1970. Other books by this author which I have reviewed include Where the Wild Things Are, Chicken Soup with Rice: A Book of Months, Bumble-ArdyĪ standalone picture book with warm and cozy illustrations of a populated kitchen with an heroic Mickey dreaming to the rescue. Picture book in Hardcover edition that was published by HarperCollins on Februand has 40 pages. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from the library in exchange for an honest review.
