BUMBLE-ARDY is a glorious picture book about a mischievous pig who has reached the age of nine without ever having had a birthday party. But all that changes when Bumble throws a party for himself and invites all his friends, leading to a wild masquerade that quickly gets out of hand.

In this highly anticipated book, Maurice Sendak once again explores the exuberance of young children and the unshakeable love between parent (in this case, an aunt) and child. BUMBLE-ARDY is the first book illustrated and written by Sendak since OUTSIDE OVER THERE in 1981.

About the Author

This outstanding American illustrator and author was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1928, the son of Jewish immigrants from Poland. Sendak′s career as an illustrator began after a stint as a window dresser. He illustrated more than 40 books between 1951 and 1962. Where the Wild Things Are - the book that made Sendak′s name internationally, appeared in 1964, and its popularity has never waned.
