A poetic ode to the author of “Goodnight Moon" and to the things that give life meaning

This book literally made me cry. A tender 42-page biography of the author behind Goodnight Moon, The Runaway Bunny, and over 100 other books-- it carries on the spirit of her writing as a children's book that speaks to the deeper aspects of life even adults can recognize. (If you’re interested in more stories of this author’s life (and her queerness) check out the Marginalian articles on her as well!)
