I love Good Night Moon, but there’s something very existential about the “Good night, Nobody.” I think that’s why I like it, actually. But is it for the under six-months set? Should we expose them to Kierkegaard and Camus so young?

Really? I guess I can see how it’d be scary–who IS that little old lady whispering hush?–I find it has a soothing rhythm when read aloud and it’s the perfect length for before bedtime. I also like the “Goodnight nobody, goodnight mush” refrain, for some reason, and the closing “goodnight noises everywhere”–especially apt in New York.

I’m with you – even though Good Night Moon was a classic for our family, I always thought that room was a little scary and dingy. Now, it brings to mind many of the apartments for sale in my neighborhood. So, scary, dingy and totally overpriced.
