Goodnight Moon by: Margaret Wise Brown Pictures by: Clement Hurd
Goodnight Moon, is a great bedtime story for kids, but it is much more than that. Its use of rhyme is good for language development in children. It also provides educational opportunities in its use of colour and number language. Additionally, its search and find nature encourages children to connect text to imagery in a very direct way. It provides readers with opportunities to ask children questions about where things are in the “great green room”.
