Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise BrownMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
As we were choosing a book to read before bed tonight she saw the moon and picked this one.
We received this book as a gift from a family member. I was excited when we got it because I remembered that I had it when I was small. Although - I didn't remember too much about it other than the fact that I was a tad bit frightened by it back then.
After opening the book - I remember part of my uneasiness stemmed from the books color scheme. Another part was after I was reminded about the "Old Lady" bunny who sat and watched as the little bunny started falling asleep. That was just (and still is) a little creepy to me.
My daughter did seem to enjoy the book. She liked how the bunny said goodnight to everything in the room. She has a very strict bedtime routine that she makes sure she keeps. So - I think she may have found comfort in knowing that the bunny may also have an obsessive night routine.
At the end - she did let me know that she was going to be saying goodnight to the moon too -- after I turn out the lights.
