    My 2 year old granddaughter loves this book. I think reading this and singing "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" are part of her bedtime routine.

    I owned used bookstores for 15+ years until I got sick three years ago. Goodnight, Moon was always much in demand, purchased by grandparents and parents alike. It was also a comfort book for kids waiting for their adults to make their selections.

    I don't know if young mothers are still reading it, but we old grandmas sure are!

    I give a selection of books, including "Goodnight Moon" to every relative who is having a baby. The start of good reading habits from "Teacher Aunt Lynnie"

    I read the book to the grandkids, and now to the great-grandsons, 4 of them.

    I, too, often give this book as a baby gift. It was my daughters favorite bedtime story!! I would love to make this quilt to give along with the book.

    what a wonderful shower/baby gift this would be for someone special. A quilt and copy of the book wrapped together. I would definately buy the fabrics to make one (or 2). Don't have a grandchild yet, but with 2 daughters in their 20's I'm sure I won't have to wait long!
