Old Book Discovered, What a Great Find!
This is a wonderful picture book, titled "Wait 'til the Moon is Full," by Margaret Wise Brown. (aka "Good Night Moon," author). This is an old book I found tucked away in a cedar chest. It came out the year 1948, so the illustrations are of that era. One can only think this a precursor to the theme of moons. The illustrations are beautifully done by Garth Williams.
Margaret W. Brown has written many books over 50 and there is a long list on Wikipeadia to pursue.
- The Runaway Bunny, illus. Clement Hurd (Harper, 1942)
- Goodnight Moon, illus. Clement Hurd (Harper, 1947)
- Scuppers The Sailor Dog, illus. Garth Williams (Little Golden Books, 1953)
- Big Red Barn (reissue), illustrated by Felicia Bond
MY Dear PATREON Subscribers- Writing Children's books is a challenge due to the many things that go into it: the planning, the research, the design, the illustrations (they take time), the editing, the publishing, the distributing, the marketing, etc.
