Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown

18 September 2017

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 coloured views of the little rabbit’s room.
