(3) PS Illustrated by Loren Long. A young bunny thoroughly greets the sunny day before bidding it good night when the moon comes up. Brown's newly published text features the soothing repetition of her more famous bedtime book, and Long's acrylic illustrations pay a softened homage to Clement Hurd's classic art. Unlikely to replace Goodnight Moon on nightstands, but the book's simple, patterned language will similarly appeal to very young listeners.
