So many better books out there!
The popularity of this book stupifies me - do people like it because they think they are supposed to? The story is dull and the pictures too brightly colored to be an effective, relaxing bedtime book. Try any of the following for a much better read:... more

Boring... even for a bedtime story
I cannot believe most reviewers say it's a classic. It's so boring my 20-month old son refuses to be near the book.

The Start of Something Good...
Five minutes ago, I finished reading chapter 10 of Tom Sawyer to my three sons. The oldest of the three has reached his teens and still likes the bed-time story. We've turned many pages together since we started with this one 13 years ago. I don't... more

Great book!!!
I started reading this book to my newborn and she is now 22 months old and still enjoys this book.

She can point to every item on the pages and says most of them.

Goodnight Moon was one of my favorite books when I was young, and now I have the privelege of reading this book to my own children. With it's simple, yet myseterious-looking pictures, and it's rather intriguing repetition, what's not to love? It's one... more

Very boring...
I got this book after hearing so much about it and I must admit---I don't "get it". I don't understand the love or the hype over this book. I find it terribly boring, and don't particularly find the illustrations very interesting. Call me crazy....more

How many times my daughters heard in hushed tones, "good night stars,... more

My first children's book
Many rave about this book, though there are some detractors. Personally, this was the first children's book I have ever read. You see, I didn't grow up being read to. When I was doing my teacher training, we were each asked to read a children's book to... more

Goodnight Moon
Both my 2 year old and I love this book. It's a cute book and keeps him occupied with the many familiar things he can pick out and identify, such as the moon, stars, balloon, bunny, etc... We've had it a while and he still gets a lot out of it! :)more
