Maurice Sendak Dear Mili (1988) Hardcover First Edition

Get ready to dive into a very Grimm tale with Sendak’s Dear Mili. A young girl escapes the horrors of war by hiding in the forest for 30 years, guided by an enigmatic old man. Sounds dark? Oh, it is. But that’s part of the magic. ✨ While the story may not be for the faint of heart, Maurice Sendak’s lush, haunting illustrations elevate it to something truly unforgettable. 🌿 The book is slightly warped (because life’s not always straight, am I right?) but still in good pre-loved condition, with no markings. The dust jacket shows some minor wear, but hey, even wild things get a little scuffed. Perfect for fans of Sendak or anyone looking to explore a beautifully eerie tale. 📚 🔖 Bundle & Save: Build your own custom mix-and-matched nostalgia haul!
