About

I'll Be You and You Be Me Synopsis

Back in print with gorgeously restored artwork! From beloved children's book creators Ruth Krauss and Maurice Sendak, this classic jacketed hardcover picture book about love and friendship perfectly captures the wonders of being a child.

This whimsical collection of tales told in poetry, prose, and even a play and a song, and described as a "Krauss-Sendak scrapbook" by the New York Herald Tribune, radiates friendship, love, and the togetherness of childhood. First published in 1954, this romp through the wild and wonderful imagination of children has been a favorite read-aloud for generations.

HarperCollins is proud to present this new edition of I'll Be You and You Be Me that has been printed in close collaboration with the Maurice Sendak Foundation to ensure that Maurice Sendak's original artwork has been reproduced to the highest standards.
