Max always reminded me of Duckie.

I read a story that quoted him talking about a child writing him a letter that touched him so much he drew a Wild Thing and sent it back. A few weeks later he got a note from the kid's mother saying the boy had liked the picture so much he ate it.

I loved that! It fit so well!

That was one of my fav books as a kid - (the pictures)
