1) In this article, Beckerman discusses some of the influence behind Goodnight Moon, such as the inspiration behind the colors and the rhymes in the book. Beckerman also discusses Margaret Wise Brown's past, and why she wrote a bedtime story about such ordinary things. I plan to include this information in a "Background" section of the Wikipedia article. Beckerman also includes some analysis about why children like the book so much (such as because of its rhyming and "scavenger hunt" style), and I plan to include this in an "Analysis" section of the Wikipedia article.

2) In this article, Egan discusses her experience reading Goodnight Moon to her son, and how it helped him to fall asleep. She addresses how the peaceful nature of the book helped her child fall asleep, and analyzes why this is the case. For example, everything in the book has a match, and the bunny in the book is calm. Egan analyzes the book from a mother's point of view, and I plan to include this analysis in an "Analysis" section of the Wikipedia article.

• "Exhibit based on beloved children's book opens at Rhode Island museum: [Final Edition]." North Bay Nugget, 2006.

3) This article discusses an exhibit based on the illustrations in Goodnight Moon (as well as illustrator Clement Hurd's other work) that visited several United States locations in the mid-2000s, and included 3D displays that recreated scenes from Goodnight Moon and other children's books. I plan to either add an "Exhibit Adaptation" section with this information, or merge the "Animated adaptation" and "Musical adaptation" sections into one "Adaptations" section, and then add this information there.

• MacDonald, Cathy. "That great green room: Margaret Wise Brown's children's classic turns 50." The Daily News (Halifax), 1997, pp. 64.

4) In this article, MacDonald discusses why Goodnight Moon was controversial when it first came out, how the idea for the book came to Margaret Wise Brown, and the original name for the book. I plan to include this information in a "Background" section of the Wikipedia article.

• Marcus, Leonard. "Awakened by the Moon: a new biography of Margaret Wise Brown presents a revealing portrait of the author of Goodnight Moon and more than 100 other books for children.", vol. 238, no. 33, 1991, pp. 16+. Gale Literature Resource Center; Gale, https://link-gale-com.proxy.library.georgetown.edu/apps/doc/A11085626/GLS?u=wash43584&sid=bookmark-GLS&xid=be207823.

5) In this article, Marcus discusses Margaret Wise Brown's journey to becoming a children's author, and how she came to write Goodnight Moon. I plan to include this in the "Background" section of the Wikipedia article. Marcus also discusses some reception of the book, which I plant to include in a "Reception" section.

• Mills, Nicolaus. "We’ve Been Saying Goodnight to That Moon for 70 Years: It doesn’t have a plot or much of a main character, and it all takes place inside one room. But ‘Goodnight Moon’ has been enchanting us for generations, and it never gets old." The Daily Beast, ProQuest Central, Research Library, 2017, https://www.proquest.com/blogs-podcasts-websites/we-ve-been-saying-goodnight-that-moon-70-years/docview/1934847403/se-2?accountid=11091.

6) In this article, Mills analyzes Goodnight Moon and what makes it a timeless children's bedtime book. Mills discusses the use of rhyme, discusses the function of many of the objects that are said "goodnight" to, and discusses what makes the book entertaining for parents as well as children. I plan to use this analysis by Mills in an "Analysis" section in the Wikipedia article.

• Pereira, Daniel. "Bedtime Books, the Bedtime Story Ritual, and Goodnight Moon." Children's Literature Association Quarterly, vol. 44, no. 2, 2019, pp. 156-172.

7) In this article, Pereira discusses "bedtime books" and why Goodnight Moon falls into that category, as it serves as a way to get kids to go to bed, and it is also about bedtime itself. Pereira also discusses the importance of privacy in bedrooms, as well as how Goodnight Moon serves to benefit parents as well as children. Pereira analyzes how the book does this through a close reading of the book's content and a focus on many of the objects in the book. I plan to include this analysis in an "Analysis" section of the Wikipedia article.

• Rahn, Suzanne. "Cat-Quest: A Symbolic Animal in Margaret Wise Brown." Children's Literature, vol. 22, 1994, pp. 149-161. Gale Literature Resource Center; Gale, https://link-gale-com.proxy.library.georgetown.edu/apps/doc/H1420066101/GLS?u=wash43584&sid=bookmark-GLS&xid=601d5f1e.

8) In this article, Rahn discusses and analyzes Margaret Wise Brown's use of animal characters in her books, including in Goodnight Moon. I plan to use this in an "Analysis" section of the Wikipedia article.

• Robertson, Judith P. "Sleeplessness in the great green room: getting way under the covers with Goodnight Moon." Children's Literature Association, 2000. Literature Online, https://www.proquest.com/undefined/sleeplessness-great-green-room-getting-way-under/docview/2152508133/se-2?accountid=11091 https://wrlc-gu.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/openurl/01WRLC_GUNIV/01WRLC_GUNIV:01WRLC_GUNIV??url_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:journal&genre=article&sid=ProQ:ProQ%253Aabell&atitle=Sleeplessness+in+the+great+green+room%253A+getting+way+under+the+covers+with+Goodnight+Moon.&title=Children%2527s+Literature+Association&issn=08850429&date=2000-01-01&volume=&issue=&spage=&au=Robertson%252C+Judith+P.&isbn=&jtitle=Children%2527s+Literature+Association&btitle=&rft_id=info:eric/2001%253A13535&rft_id=info:doi/.

9) In this article, Robertson analyzes several themes and ideas present in Goodnight Moon. Among them are how sleep is equated with separation for a child and how Goodnight Moon addresses this, as well as the role of repetition, rhythm, and rhyme in the book. In regards to how sleep is equated with separation, Robertson specifically focuses on how this means separation from the day and being awake, as well as separation from a parental figure. I plan to include this analysis in an "Analysis" section of the Wikipedia article.

• Stanton, Joseph. "'Goodnight Nobody': Comfort and the Vast Dark in the Picture-Poems of Margaret Wise Brown and Her Collaborators." Lion and the Unicorn, vol. 14, 1990, pp. 66-76. Gale Literature Resource Center; Gale, https://link-gale-com.proxy.library.georgetown.edu/apps/doc/H1420066100/GLS?u=wash43584&sid=bookmark-GLS&xid=493c6a4a.

10) In this article, Stanton analyzes Goodnight Moon, specifically in relation to how it adapts the "child-alone-in-the-wide-world" motif. Stanton begins with discussing why Margaret writes for children in the way that she does, and I plan to add this information to a "Background" section in the Wikipedia article. Through the rest of the article, Stanton discusses the "child-alone-in-the-wide-world" motif in Goodnight Moon, and analyzes how everything in the book revolves around the child, with an omniscient voice narrating the story. I plan to add this analysis in an "Analysis" section in the Wikipedia article.
