2025 Goodnight Moon Forever Postage Stamps Sheet First-Class

 These stamps were issued to honor the popular children’s book, Goodnight Moon, written by Margaret Wise Brown and published in 1947.

The eight stamps in the set feature details from different pages of the book. Art director, Derry Noyes, used the artwork by illustrator Clement Hurd to design the pane of stamps.

Each stamp captures an iconic image from the book, preserving in miniature the details that have made this book unforgettable. The quiet old lady saying hush, the bunny tucked snug into bed, the little house glowing with an inner light – every element is a thread in the rich tapestry of childhood memories. Even the smallest details, like a bowl of mush, remind us of the comfort found in routine. The picture of the cow leaping over the moon stands as a final reminder that the world of dreams knows no limits.
