Maurice Sendak bol americký autor a ilustrátor detskej literatúry. Jeho diela často skúmajú temnejšie a zložitejšie aspekty detského sveta, ktorým sa venuje s jedinečným vizuálnym štýlom a hlbokým pochopením psychológie detí. Sendak sa preslávil svojimi príbehmi, ktoré sa neboja konfrontovať emócie ako hnev, strach a nuda, a ponúkajú deťom priestor na ich prežitie a pochopenie. Jeho inovatívny prístup k detskej literatúre naďalej ovplyvňuje generácie autorov a čitateľov.
