We found no objectionable content in this book. As a fire crackles in the fireplace and the moon rises in a wintry night sky outside the windows of his bedroom, a young rabbit settles down for the night. An old lady rabbit rocks quietly in a nearby chair knitting, mittens dry in front of the fire, two kittens tumble on the carpet, and a mouse peeks out. The room grow gradually dimmer as the rabbit says goodnight to each object in his room and outside the window, then falls at last asleep. The book itself is smaller than many picture books, just the right size for young hands to hold.
