Perhaps the perfect children's bedtime book, Goodnight Moon is a short poem of goodnight wishes from a young rabbit preparing for--or attempting to postpone--his own slumber. He says goodnight to every object in sight and within earshot, including the "quiet old lady whispering hush." Clement Hurd's illustrations are simple and effective, alternating between small ink drawings and wide, brightly colored views of the little rabbit's room. Finding all of the items mentioned throughout the book within the pictures is a good bedtime activity--a reappearing little mouse is particularly pesky. By the end of the little rabbit's goodnight poem, the story has quieted to a whisper, and the drawings have darkened with nightfall. As you turn the last page, you can expect a sleepy smile and at least a yawn or two. (Picture book)
Product Description
In a great green room, tucked away in bed, is a little bunny. "Goodnight room, goodnight moon." And to all the familiar things in the softly lit room--to the picture of the three little bears sitting in chairs, to the clocks and his socks, to the mittens and the kittens, to everything one by one--he says goodnight. In this classic of modern children's literature, beloved by generations of readers and listeners, the quiet poetry of the words and the gentle, lulling illustrations combine to make a perfect book for the end of the day.

 LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this book! November 18, 2009
K. Saito (Cleveland, Ohio)
My 21 month old son has me read this book to him EVERY night. He loves it! He points out the clock, the light, the balloon, the moon, and the rabbit who is going to sleep. His favorite page is the last page when the room is dark and the little old lady has gone. I just can't say enough good things about this book.
 wonderful book, arrived in fair condition November 7, 2009
Darlene (Finger Lakes NY)
Goodnight Moon is a classic for children. The story is simple and the illustrations are beautiful, taking you and your child into a world of pure fantasy. I am only disappointed that the book (purchased NEW) arrived with "scuff" marks. It came in a package with 2 other books and they were fine.
Great Baby Gift November 2, 2009

My son doesn't like this book and he usually loves books, I tried reading it to him at around 1 year and waited a few months before introducing it to him again. He doesn't seem to care for the illustrations or story line and I have to admit it's rather boring....

My son LOVES books but has no interest in this book - NONE. I probably read 30+ books a day to him. At 12 months he can sit through average length books (e.g. Brown Bear Brown Bear, What Do You See?) and some longer length books (e.g. Chicka Chicka Boom Boom - his favorite). He won't even sit through the first half of this book and it's relatively short. I don't understand what people see in this book. The black & white pages are very dull and the objects that are mentioned in the book are so small I have to look for them. Neither the illustrations nor the wording hold a young child's attention. There are so many other nighttime books that are more appealing to young children. Save your money and space on your bookshelf.
