Goodnight Moon - Margaret Wise Brown, Clement Hurd

This book is one of those ‘classic’ bedtime storybook. It has been around and in print for over 60 years. As considering the currency, it should be taken off from the list for this blog.

But Margaret Wise Brown's Goodnight Moon is a certified classic in many ways, so I decided to include it in. rabbit goes to bed and says goodnight to all the objects he sees in his room (mittens, mouse, clock etc.), and outside his window moon. This charming story of a young rabbit's bedtime ritual invokes the kind of cozy quietness that calls the peaceful dreams.

Soothing words and illustrations make "Goodnight Moon" a very good picture book to read with children at bedtime. It is a good book to read to get a small child to go to sleep.
