In 1947, Margaret Wise Brown sat at a typewriter and Clement
Hurd took out his brushes and paint. Together they created
Goodnight Moon. In the 60 years since publication, the book has
sold millions of copies. In 2005, Thacher Hurd sat at his computer,
and using digital images, computer manipulation, and a passion for
his father’s work, created Goodnight Moon 123. This counting book
is a natural complement to the classic bedtime book. From kittens
to cows to bowls of mush, the comforting and familiar images are
given a fresh look for the new generation.
