Goodnight Songs

　　美國重要的兒童文學先驅瑪格麗特．懷茲．布朗曾經在1952年寫下多首迷人的搖籃曲，在她離世後一直未有機會出版。因緣際會下，出版人Amy Gary與這疊閣樓裡泛黃的手稿相遇，接下來的三年中，她找來十二位屢獲大獎肯定的插畫家共同參與創作，與瑪格麗特雋永的歌謠結合成《Goodnight Songs》這部意義非凡的全彩繪本。

　　參與此書的插畫家包括《紐約時報》暢銷童書作者Carin Berger、代表作是《Puff, the Magic Dragon 》的作家Eric Puybaret、榮獲史考特‧金恩榮譽獎的Sean Qualls與凱迪克獎得主Melissa Sweet等。由Emily Gary和Tom Prout譜唱的優美旋律就在隨書附的CD裡，輕快地陪伴孩子們一起進入甜美的夢鄉。（文／博客來編譯）

An accompanying CD, with lilting songs beautifully composed and sung by Emily Gary and Tom Proutt, makes this the perfect gift to wish children a sweet goodnight.
