  • Delight in the nostalgia of this beloved children’s book with the Goodnight Moon Forever® stamps.

    The stamp pane features eight details from the timeless picture book, including: the young bunny tucked into bed; the painting of three little bears; the toy house on the bedroom floor; the mittens and socks hung to dry; the tiny mouse paused for just a moment in front of the fireplace; the painting of the cow jumping over the Moon; the older bunny sitting in the rocking chair with her knitting; and the comb, brush, and bowl of mush atop the young bunny's bedside table. Each scene appears twice on the pane.

    Art director Derry Noyes designed the pane using existing art by Clement Hurd.

    The Goodnight Moon stamps are being issued as Forever® stamps. These Forever stamps will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail® one-ounce price.
