One of my favorite children's book illustrators is Robert McCloskey. Not only did he write and illustrate the two Homer Price books, but he illustrated the first four Henry Reed books. (I recommend all of these, by the way)
Well, I've always pronounced his last name "Mac-Closs-Key." Well, today I learned on Antiques Roadshow that it's really "Mc-Cluss-Key." I also learned that his book "Make Way For Ducklings" is the official children's book of Massachusetts. Hey, "amazing" isn't synonymous with "important"! I was amazed, so I came here to dust off the thread.
