Rating:  Summary: all time favorite Review: I read this book to my 2 year old son everynight and he loves it. My son loves the bright colors and the different items in the room that we find together like the mouse and the socks and the telephone. We both find confort in this story before we go to sleep.
Rating:  Summary: THE BEST BOOK Review: This book was the sweetest childhood book I'v read.It is about a little rabit that can't go to sleep and thinks of many things. Even now I'm 10 sometime I pull it out and remember when I was little. SO if you have someone younger child in your family buy it today.
Rating:  Summary: great classic Review: I had never seen this book before I bought it about a year ago, my 2 yr old loves it. No matter how many other books we read, Goodnight Moon is always the last. He is even 'reading' it to me now.
Rating:  Summary: Good Book! Review: This book tells of a bunny saying goodnight to all the things around him before he sleeps. The simple manner by which the story is told really catches my daughter's attention that it becomes easy for her to memorize the book by heart.The illustrations are cute (especially the mouse --- seen in almost every page!) and the voices behind the songs (audio cassette) make my baby fall asleep faster! A truly delightful book for babies and moms!
Rating:  Summary: Perfect 1st book Review: My sister had kids before me and always mentioned Goodnight Moon. Of course, I ignored her. Now being a mother of two, I can't stop singing the praises of this book. From the time by daughters were about 6 months old they loved this book. The way your voice sounds with the cadence of the story. I buy it for all my friends who are having kids. It's a must for every mother.
Rating:  Summary: Repetitive but Interesting Review: I know that this is book is a classic and everything but my two year old and I found it a bit repetitive. By the third read, he was already reading it to ME!
Rating:  Summary: Classic Bedtime Story Review: The book is a true classic. A young rabbit in blue and white striped pajamas crawls into bed and says goodnight to everything in his room in addition to the moon. The cadence and meter of the words will have your child's eyes closing by book's end. I have both the hard cover and boardbook version. Both hold up very well. When my son was one, he looked at the pictures and listened to the words. As he grew he began to really see the pictures and all that is contained on each page, including the tiny mouse. This book was first published in 1947. It is timeless. The only thing I have to explain to my son each time I read the book, is "what is mush". The story is comforting. The rhyming phrases are fascinating for a young child. This book is an absolute must for any child's bookshelf. Highly, highly recommended.
Rating:  Summary: a must! Review: this book is a must for ANY avid reader. i read this book religiously. even though it may seem simple, the message it conveys to the heart is warming and the tear it brings to the eye is love. if you haven't read this book, or have read it and don't own it, i strongley suggest you purchase it. it also helps any relationship probelems you may have. trust me. blessings
Rating:  Summary: Another Classic Children's Book... Review: This book is a miracle worker for the tired parent. I received the hardcover copy when my first child was born, and it was a fascination to him at bedtime (age 1 - 3) and his siblings for years and years. The children's favorite part of this book has always been the search for the teeny mouse, who is doing something on every page - sometimes he's hard to find, and although the search went on repeatedly, there was always a squeal of delight when he was found. This book is a common gift item - the board book for the child, especially - but a copy of the hardcover can become a family library gift. I only wish I could find mine - we went through 1 hardcover and 2 board books! This is one book where multiple copies are probably always going to be welcome. Consider adding a bookplate with the new child's name on it.
Rating:  Summary: Terrific Book: Beware, Everyone Gives This As A Gift Review: This is a great book. No question. I heartily recommend the board book version, which will withstand the wear and tear a little better. Gift Buyers: beware. This is a popular gift choice (there is a nice gift set -- book and stuffed bunny). Just remember -- its everyone else's gift choice, too. Another great gift book by this author is The Runaway Bunny. Of course, if you get a non-board book version, chances are that the extra copies will come in handy, as pages can tear easily. This is sure to be a favorite.
