Adorable! December 31, 2008
We love this book! We found it at the library around Halloween and had to have it. My 3 year old asks for it often and I haven't gotten tired of reading it to him!
Very Cute December 12, 2008
May be a little scary for younger tots but my six year son loved it.
Great book! November 23, 2008
This book quickly became one of our Halloween favorites. The kids and I read it over and over again!
A new family tradition November 20, 2008
I surprised my wife, daughter, daughter in-law, and grandkids by sending them Goodnight Goon for a halloween present. I ordered two books online without anybody knowing. My grandkids ages 2,3,5, and 7 loved the books and the surprise that grandpa sent a present to their homes for Halloween. They loved the spooky pictures and had to read it 6 times the first day. The artwork is wonderfull and not too scary. The story really kept their attention. This book is great for any time of the year. Of course every year during halloween, Goodnight Goon will have to be read. Our whole family still reads Goodnight Moon.

Goodnight Goon: a Petrifying Parody, by Michael Rex was released in October --just in time for Halloween.br /br /"Goodnight tomb. Goodnight goon. Goodnight Martians taking over the moon."br /br /Attention ...............Goodnight Moon fans, this beloved classic gets a kind-hearted send up in this utterly monsterized parody. This time there are spiders, bats, gravestones and skulls in the a cold gray tomb. The tone is still rhythm and rhyme. The illustrations are colorful and just fabulous as is the story; very cleverly done. The book was scary enough, but not too scary for a young child.br /br /This book is a keeper!
