A Short Good Night Poem
Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown
Goodnight Moon
In the great green room
There was a telephone
And a red balloon
And a picture of-
The cow jumping over the moon
And there were three little bears sitting on chairs
And two little kittens
And a pair of mittens
And a little toy house
And a young mouse
And a comb and a brush and a bowl full of mush
And a quiet old lady who was whispering "hush"
Goodnight room
Goodnight moon
Goodnight cow jumping over the moon
Goodnight light
And the red balloon
Goodnight bears
Goodnight chairs
Goodnight kittens
And goodnight mittens
Goodnight clocks
And goodnight socks
Goodnight little house
And goodnight mouse
Goodnight comb
And goodnight brush
Goodnight nobody
Goodnight mush
And goodnight to the old lady whispering "hush"
Goodnight stars
Goodnight air
Goodnight noises everywhere
About the Poet
Margaret Wise Brown was a prolific American author of children's literature whose works, many of which are considered classics, continue to capture future generations of children and their parents. She was born in Brooklyn, New York, on May 23, 1910, and passed away in Nice, France, on November 13, 1952.
Because of how well-received her novels were, she left Scott's employment in 1941 to devote herself entirely to writing, frequently finishing five or more children's books a year. She wrote works under her own name as well as under the pen names Timothy Hay, Golden MacDonald, & Juniper Sage (in conjunction with Edith Thacher Hurd, another well-known author). Clement Hurd as well as other artists drew the illustrations for her novels, which eventually numbered over 100 titles.
