In the warm peach-coloured upstairs bedroom, a baby boy was born, delivered by his father,admired by his brother, welcomed with tears and kisses by his mother.

A few days...

Pros: A classic book

Cons: Only for small children

The Bottom Line: This is a must for any library whether you are a parent or grandparent.

Review: Ok, I will start this review with a confession. I have three copies of this book. I have it in paper back, hard back and a cardboard book copy. Wheww! I feel much better now that I have got that off my chest.

I had no idea that this book by...

Pros: Interesting Illustrations, good book

Cons: It isn't really a story

Review: Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown was one of the first books we bought our second daughter. It was a Christmas gift on her first birthday and has quickly become a favorite for her as well as her older sister.

This is a very simple and...

Pros: Pros: Quiet, calming story, repetitive, rhyming words, reassuring and comforting at bedtime or anytime

Cons: none

The Bottom Line: Goodnight Moon is one of the best picture bedtime storybooks for young children. Parents love the books too. It's short enough for children and parents to read every night.

Review: When our grandson was only a few months old, our daughter-in-law asked us to tape record ourselves reading story books. We live over 1,00 miles away and she wanted her son to remember our voices when we were not there. One book we chose was "Goodnight...

Pros: Simple, beautifully illustrated

Cons: A bit slow, perhaps

The Bottom Line: Great bedtime reader for the kids

Review: This children's book has obviously generated bushels of critical acclaim. It seems wrongheaded to pile another log onto the woodpile, but I feel compelled to do so, only if to air my own admiration for this work. I do have a twist, however, we have...

Pros: It's fun, kids love it, and they can relate to the bedtime rituals

Cons: None whatsoever

Review: I never knew...Goodnight Moon is a story that was first published in 1947, and I had never, in my 25 years had heard of this book!

My best friend introduced me to Goodnight Moon when my son was a little over a year old, very enthusiastic and...

Pros: quiet time book

Cons: none

The Bottom Line: great bed time story.

Review: This has to be a classic good night story for very young children. The rhymes are easy for the children to remember and it relates to other stories that could have been already read.

Pros: Cute illustrations, classic story, easy to turn pages, sturdy and durable

Cons: Not one :)

The Bottom Line: Every child needs to have Goodnight Moon sitting on their bedside table!

Review: I know that most people have heard of this book before, probably during their childhood, but this wasn't in my arsenal of books. Oh sure, I know what Very Hungry Caterpillar and The Giving Tree are... but Goodnight Moon just wasn't ...

Pros: Simple, sweet, gentle. Illustrations are simple and excellent

Cons: You may find yourself quoting this book frequently and without thinking about it :-)

Review: It is somewhat ironic that after 4 and a half years of what is commonly referred to as "mommy brain" (a condition in which even the simplest of words and thoughts slips through the sieve of my mind with startling regularity), I can still...

Pros: Classic bedtime story and treasured book

Cons: verses may not flow smoothly in some parts

The Bottom Line: Highly recommended for children 4 and under. Children over age 4, might get bored too easily with this book.

Review: It is time for Little Rabbit to go to bed in the great green room, but first, he must say goodnight to all of his special treasures, but better do it quick because he might fall asleep before he's done!
