Goodnight Moon
That’s our favorite bedtime story. I had heard rave reviews about it so when I saw it being sold in a book sale I grabbed it right away. I was disappointed though when I first read it. I thought the story was too boring. Z was not interested either so we put it away for awhile.
Then last night we started reading it again and the two of us had a blast. I finally understood why they said it’s a must have for kids. In the book, the rabbit was about to go to sleep. Before he goes to sleep he observes the things in his room like the kittens, the mittens, the little mouse, the painting of the cow jumping over the moon, and of course the moon. After that he said goodnight to everything inside his room.
Z can’t help giggling when I pointed out that the young rabbit was talking to inanimate objects as if they’re real. He had such a twinkle in his eye while looking around our room that I know he was silently saying goodnight to his things too.
