Hi there!

"La noche que Max se puso un traje de lobo y comenzo a hacer una travesura

tras otra

su mama le dijo: "ERES UN MONSTRUO!"
y Max le contesto: "TE VOY A COMER!"
y lo mandaron a la cama sin cenar."

-Donde Viven Los Monstruos

  • As I've been told I'm a voracious reader I suppose that means that I love to eat up books! ;)

  • This is a swap in honor of Maurice Sendak's birthday, June 10, inspired by his famous book Where the Wild Things Are (and if you've ever read the book you know what the lines of the first few pages are, even though they're in Spanish up there).

  • For this swap you are invited to make two monster corner page bookmarks, for your one partner, using this tutorial as a guide. Senders choice on color for their wild thing but please do make two different colored ones. :)

  • Here is A Conversation with Maurice Sendak that's worth a listen to, in my opinion.

(about the above quote, I only had the Spanish book version on hand at home, in order to copy the text, and I thought it'd be fun to mix things up a bit since I do also read books in Spanish and I know others out there do too.) ;)
