This marvelous tale tells the story of two friends, Presto and Zesto, and how they find themselves lost in the magical, mysterious place called Limboland. It’s a joy.” -Publishers Weekly (starred review) Fans of Maurice Sendak's Caldecott Medal-winning Where the Wild Things Are will love Presto and Zesto in Limboland-a never-before-published picture book collaboration between Maurice Sendak and Arthur Yorinks, author of Caldecott Medal winner Hey, Al. An unexpected gift.” -Booklist (starred review) “The images hold some of the irrational, dreamlike childhood fears that Sendak returned to throughout his life as an artist, but Yorinks’s broad humor makes the menace as easy to push aside as a theater curtain. Yorinks, using his trademark clever nonsense iced with irony, reveals a tale that links everything together in riotous fashion. “The pictures are vintage Sendak: wry, wild, and with all sorts of mysteries tucked away in the corners.
