Illustrated by
Clement Hurd.
These counting books lift parts of Brown's writing (ably translated in Buenas) and fragments from Hurd's illustrations to demonstrate numbers one through ten and one hundred. Some pages use figures and text in a way that makes sense ("One quiet old lady whispering hush"; "Three little bears sitting on chairs"), while others are arbitrary ("Five telephones"; "Six bowls of mush"). Review covers these titles: Goodnight Moon 123 and Goodnight Moon 123 / Buenas Noches, Luna 123.
