On this walking tour, kid lit fans can visit the sites where Where the Wild Things Are, The Very Hungry Caterpiller, and–yes–Make Way for Ducklings were all created; wander the park H.A. Rey sketched from his front window; and pass the school where Goodnight Moon author Margaret Wise Brown launched her career and the nearby Wonderland cottage that became her writing studio.
