Margaret Wise Brown

A little rabbit who wants to run away tells his mother how he will escape, but she is always right behind him.

A little pumpkin dreams of the day when he will be a big, fierce, yellow pumpkin who frightens away the field mice as the scarecrow does.

Goodnight to each of the objects in the great green room: goodnight chairs, goodnight comb, goodnight air.

Relates the morning, noon, and evening activities of several young animals and a little girl.

As the sun rises, birds, horses, rabbits, flowers, bugs, and finally children get up to start their day.

In brief rhyming text, lists all the types of insects the narrator likes.

The many animals that can be seen on a peaceful day at the farm are described in a jaunty rhyme and depicted in exuberant drawings that capture the fun of a farmyard.

Includes Goodnight Moon, faithfully adapted from the original book and featuring a beautiful musical score; A Creature Was Stirring (seen through the eyes of a child, a new adaptation of the classic Christmas poem); and Gladys Goes Out to Lunch (Gladys the gorilla smells something delicious and leaves the zoo to find out what it is).

Pussycat knows Christmas is coming, plays in the snow, and watches the Christmas preparations.

Simple rhymes for each letter of the alphabet are illustrated with an array of toddlers and babies saying goodnight.
