In The Night Kitchen has been banned and it was one of my favorite books as a kid, so like, maybe just parent your kids and pick what books they get instead of banning them for everyone cause it should be a parents choice not random asshat from fucking nowhere telling me what to read my kids. If I had any.
My wife also loved this story and I hadn't heard of it. We bought it for our kids , also partially because it was on the Colbert Report when he had Maurice Sendak on the show, which was awesome
Sadly the clip for this doesn't seem to be available anymore. The best part was Colbert had cut out all of the penises and put them in a bag that he gave to Mr. Sendak
