I missed the boat on this one but he will be missed. His work made a difference to a lot of children.

That book was fairly old when I was a kid, and I'm not among the younger crop here. I was honestly surprised he was still alive. Definitely a very memorable book, largely on account of his art style. I couldn't tell you 98% of the books I read as a kid, but I remember that one.
