Book Description

Aug 15 1991

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.

Product Description

From Amazon

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)

5.0 out of 5 stars Reading for Me Mar 14 2007
By Maggie
Format:Board book
I love this book, have loved it since my neighbour bought it for my then two-year-old daughter.

Since that time, I've read it over and over, as slowly as I possibly can, hoping that the words will last. There's something so calming about them that I always feel like I've received a warm hug once I'm done. I am then ready to go off to sleep and say goodnight to my daughter and the moon.

Thank you, Ms Brown.

Yours,

Maggie Pagratis

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-Have Bedtime Book... July 10 2004
Format:Board book
This book was one of our bedtime rituals. When I was weaning my son from frequent night-time breastfeedings, we would read this book at bedtime every evening. Sometimes I could hear him "reading" this book to himself in the dark if he was still have trouble settling down. Often, we read it in unison, and chuckled together. It's sweet and slow and comforting, and simply taking the time to cuddle and read it has a peaceful effect on both parent and child.

4.0 out of 5 stars I gave it a 2nd try and now we like it! Dec 30 2008
By Lulu
Format:Board book
I received Goodnight Moon as a gift and didn't realize it was a "recommended" book. I read through it and was very unimpressed. After I found out it was "recommended" I decided to give it a try and started reading it to my son last month - he was 4 months old then. To my surprise he seems totally engrossed by the book. I even found myself enjoying the book - there is something quite charming about the words when read aloud slowly and deliberately for my son. The quaint drawings which remind me of a time long past. After reading the book we say goodnight to our own room.

Sure some passages don't make sense - the "old lady whispering hush" is a rabbit! (That's why I am not rating it 5 stars) But I still look forward to many many nights of reading this with my son and looking at the pictures to see what other surprises we might find together in the book.
