Back to the Wild: Where the Wild Things Are sequel

Despite Maurice Sendak vowing never to write a sequel to Where the Wild Things Are, author and illustrator Geoffrey O. Todd and Rich Berner have a Kickstarter to fund their own.

Looking to raise a whopping £25,000 - Back to the Wild have released the full text as well as character designs in a bid to win over potential funders.

Just in case there was ever any doubt. Maurice Sendak was against a sequel. I mean, AGAINST a sequel:

People said, ‘why didn’t you do Wild Things 2? Wild Things 1 was such a success’. Go to hell. Go to hell. I’m not a whore. I don’t do those things.
