Goodnight Mr. Darcy: A BabyLit Parody

Description:

The adored children’s classic Goodnight Moon gets a classic lit makeover in this charming parody of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice novel. All of Austen’s much-loved characters are at the Netherfield Ball. In the great ballroom, there was a country dance, and a well-played tune, and Elizabeth Bennett; and Mr. Darcy surprised, by a pair of fine eyes . . . And don’t forget Jane with a blush and Mr. Bingley turned to mush, and a gossiping mother and father saying hush. Parents and toddlers alike will enjoy this new take on Austen’s timeless work à la Goodnight Moon.

In the great ballroom There was a country dance And a well-played tune And Elizabeth Bennet --

And the Netherfield moon And there were three officers sitting on chairs

And Lydia and Kitty Who were sure they looked pretty

And Mr. Darcy surprised By a pair of fine eyes

And Jane with a blush and Mr. Bingley turned to mush
