Simply classicNovember 30, 2008 Don't know what it is about this book, but it is amazing. The illustrations are repetative, the text sometimes ridiculous, ("goodnight nobody"?!) But it works magic. It simply reads like a lullaby. My children have each loved it as toddlers, and number six is proving to be no exception. (We have bought her a new copy as our old one is falling apart from being so well loved!)
Not ReceivedNovember 27, 2008 "Goodnight Moon" should have been shipped Oct. 27 or 28. I checked on the order Nov. 5 and because it was not received I e-mailed Amazon and was told that it was in the estimated delivery time. Then I checked last week to find that the order had dropped off the Amazon site then and today, Nov. 26. I ordered the book to share with my 14 months old grand daughter while visiting Houston from Nov. 2 through Nov. 12. I live in Los Angeles and ordered the book in time to be able to share it with her during my visit since my visits are rare and special. I am most disappointed in Amazon that I could not share the book with her. My order is paid for but not received. It needs to be fond and delivered. Gladys Cole

Didn't realize this was a mini-version of the book till I received it. It's about the size of an adult's hand (fingertip to palm). Doesn't make the best gift.
Goodnight MoonNovember 17, 2008 This is one of the all time favorites to add to your children's library. It is an especially great selection to read to children at bedtime. A wonderful selection for children having difficulty going to sleep at night.
I have always loved this book!November 4, 2008 The Christmas Edition This was a bedtime favorite of my children. Now our oldest is about to have her own child (its a boy). So I bought a parcel of books for the baby. When Kimberly saw this book, tears sprang in her eyes remembering me reading this to her while she sat on my lap. In a few more months someone new will be in her arms on her lap, and she will be reading this book to him.
