Goodnight Moon
In a great green room, tucked away in bed, is a little bunny. "Goodnight room, goodnight moon." And to all the familiar things in the softly lit room -- to the picture of the three little bears sitting in chairs, to the clocks and his socks, to the mittens and the kittens, to everything one by one -- he says goodnight.
In this classic of modern children's literature, beloved by generations of readers and listeners, the quiet poetry of the words and the gentle, lulling illustrations combine to make a perfect book for the end of the day.
The Runaway Bunny
Clement Hurd redrew some of his pictures for this new edition of the profoundly comforting story of a bunny's imaginary game of hide-and-seek and the lovingly steadfast mother who finds him every time.
Margaret Wise Brown, cherished for her unique ability to convey a child's experience and perspective of the world, transformed the landscape of children's literature with such beloved classics as Goodnight Moon and The Runaway Bunny. Other perennial favorites by Ms. Brown include Nibble Nibble; My World; Where Have You Been?; Christmas in the Barn; and Sneakers, the Seaside Cat.
Muy pocos escritores de literatura infantil han logrado captar las emociones e inquietudes de la ni±ez como Margaret Wise Brown (1910-1952). Sus numerosos y ya clßsicos libros y grabaciones contin·an deleitando a lectores y oyentes de todas las edades.
