This is a story of a little rabbit saying goodnight to all of the things he sees in his room. Most of the pages have some rhyming and repetition. The colors in the book progressively get darker as the night comes and the little rabbit falls asleep.

This is a story about a little bunny who is tucked in for the night. He says good night to everything in his room from his socks and clocks to his pictures on the wall and of course to the moon. This is a great book for nap time or any time children need calming down. ( )

This book is wonderful and was read to me as a child. A bunny is in the bed and before he goes to sleep he tells everything in the bedroom goodnight, including the moon.

This book is perfect for bedtime or nap time, because it helps to calm and relax children. The story is a little bunny who is saying goodnight to everything it can see. It says goodnight to the moon, and the cow jumping over the moon in a picture. It says goodnight to everything in the room and it is a soothing story that calms children for sleep.

This is another book that everyone needs to read at least once as a child. It is a perfect story to read to children right before bed, so I probably wouldn't use it in my classroom. But, I would definitely recommend it to a parent or guardian who mentions to me that they have trouble getting their little one to bed. This book is basically about a rabbit who tells everything goodnight before he falls asleep. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com (ISBN 0694003611, Board book)

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)
