Little Bird is entering the 1-2 age range and, yes indeed, we read the board book version of Goodnight Moon almost every night now. It’s soporific effects cannot be praised highly enough.

Betsy, is Little Bird in her second year yet? Because if so, you NEED to experience Good Night Moon as a parent! The book is magical! But if you aren’t trying to put a toddler to bed, it’s not nearly as impressive.

Correction needed! At the top and at least once more you identify the illustrator as Clement MOORE, although in the body of the piece you use his correct name – Clement HURD. I believe Clement Moore wrote “T’was the Night Before Christmas. “
