•The new video is called: “CHICKEN SOUP WITH RICE🍲🍲! by Maurice Sendak -LIVE-READ w/Heidi & Millicent

•This is our FALL story, & it’s a very special one in store for you all! 💥

•This story is written by Maurice Sendak, and he is most known for his classic children's book "WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE", written in 1963.

•This mini-story book is called "CHICKEN SOUP WITH RICE", and is one of many of Sendak's mini-stories from an original compilation of 2 books, "The Sign from Rosie's Door" (in 1960), & "The Nutshell Library" (in 1962).

✨So, in "CHICKEN SOUP WITH RICE", the lead, who's a young boy in this story, LOVES chicken soup SO much, he makes it during all seasons, & he shows us for each month of the year, HOW exactly he celebrates his Chicken Soup, and with whom! For each month of the year, he shares his escapades with his beloved CHICKEN SOUP!

✨Millicent has a FANTASTIC time learning all about the little boy's adventures, & Heidi makes sure to give all kinds of history about how this story came about!!!😁😁🍲🍲!! ✨To continue, Sendak also wrote & published this mini-story, as part of another book called "REALLY ROSIE" in 1975,

✨Sendak next wrote & directed an animated TV movie called "REALLY ROSIE" in 1975 as well, & singer/songwriter, Carole King composed & performed the music for the TV special. ✨Lastly, then Sendak & Carole King wrote the musical of the same name, & it played on Broadway in 1980. The musical was based on Sendak's books and the animated TV special.

✨So, Sendak based the story of "REALLY ROSIE" on a young girl he observed while growing up in Brooklyn, NY. The story is about Rosie, a bossy girl who entertains herself and her friends by acting out showbiz fantasies. 🙋🏻‍♀️🐭Millicent & I will sing 🎤🎼a few bars of a few songs from 🌹"REALLY ROSIE", 🌹 in the near future, on here: as one of our next uploads! 😁BUT for now, in the meantime, here's a link below, to the SUPER FUN song 🍲"CHICKEN SOUP WITH RICE", written for the TV special by Maurice Sendak, & composed and performed by Carole King,!
