Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown

I really enjoyed this book as a child and thought I should read this again to see if I still enjoyed the book. The one thing I really liked about the book was the pictures. I feel like I was looking more at the pictures than at what the text was actually saying. I read the text and wanted to go find the object in the room. I think too many words on one page would have taken away from these pictures and visual of the room.

The one problem I had was with how big this bedroom really was. There was a fireplace, a huge bed, pictures, dressers, tables and another huge rug. A room like this seems fit for royalty. I don't know anyone who has this in their bedroom or the particular items in the room as well. In most kids rooms there are toys, big messes, and stereotypical kids things. I think the visual is a little too old for who the text is meant for.
