Gorey!

I think I was first exposed to Edward Gorey's art on the cover of the book The House with a Clock in its Walls by John Bellairs.  And then I remember the opening to the PBS show Mystery which I LOVED.  AND THEN I found the book The Shrinking of Treehorn!  It is one of my all-time favorite books and Gorey was the incredible illustrator.    When I saw and read Nonsense!  The Curious Story of Edward Gorey I found out that he not only was an illustrator, but also an author.  Shame on me for not knowing that before this!  The Wuggly Ump was wonderful!  As was Nonsense!
