A biography for Richard Scarryhasn’t been written yet.
“I am very happy when people write that they have worn out my books, or that they are held together by Scotch tape. I consider that the ultimate compliment.”
“I'm not interested in creating a book that is read once and then placed on the shelf and forgotten.”
“Wherever I go, I'm watching. Even on vacation, when I'm in an airport or a railroad station, I look around, snap pictures, and find out how people do things.”
