Two years after Goodnight Moon, Margaret Wise Brown and Clement Hurd once again combined their special talents in this timeless picture book that delivers an enchanting, reassuring portrait of a child's growing sense of ownership and identity.

Margaret Wise Brown was an author of extraordinary talent. Few writers have been as intimately attuned to the concerns and emotions of children, and indeed it may be said that her unique ability to see the world through a child's eye gave a new and enduring dimension to picture-book writing in this country. Her many popular picture books--including Goodnight Moon, The Runaway Bunny, The Little Fur Family, and Big Red Barn--continue to delight thousands of young listeners and readers every year.

Clement Hurd was the illustrator of the classic picture books Goodnight Moon and The Runaway Bunny by Margaret Wise Brown. He was married to the writer Edith Thacher Hurd, and together, they too created many beloved children's books, including the I Can Read Books about Johnny Lion. My World is dedicated to their son, author-illustrator Thacher Hurd.
